Absolutely the best deal I've seen so far. Good thing I have the Complete Zep boxset otherwise I'd be so in.

In light of the Zeppelin dealio, I've cross-posted these two albums to Hot Deals.

I did, however, buy the Led Zeppelin album, since I've been meaning to make legitimate purchases of a lot of those songs for some time now.
Keep up the great work! This is fast becoming my favorite thread in the music forum.

This thread freakin' rocks...I've recently dabbled with Amazon's dl service and find it really easy to use and a bit cheaper than iTunes (which I still pledge allegiance to of course...)

Some deals I found:
Unfold by Marié Digby - $1.99
Ghosts I-IV by Nine Inch Nails - $5.00
In Utero [Explicit] by Nirvana - $4.98
The two following comedy albums are technically only two tracks, but considering each "track" is an entire side of the album...
Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers by The Firesign Theatre - $1.98
I Think We're All Bozos On This Bus by The Firesign Theatre - $1.98

The Zeppelin deal was great, picked that up. I heard back from the mod and they weren't in favor of stickying the thread so we'll just have to try and make sure we keep it visible.

why won't the mods make this a sticky? it seems as informative as the "free magazines" thread in Hot Deals to me...can we sign a ballot or something? write a poem? mail peanuts? what?

Anyways, some great deals to be had so far, except I already had just about every cd they've had a steal on that appeals to me (Zeppelin, George Harrison, Weezer, Al Green, etc....)

For those wishing to talk about alleged threadcraps, please take a few deep breaths.... and then think about letting go. There's really no need to take this off-topic because of ego.
