Is anyone here a member of the Book of the Month Club 2? It seems to work like Yourmusic, albeit with a slightly higher price per book ($10, though still with free shipping.) As with Yourmusic, one gets sent from the queue each month, though this again differs from Yourmusic in that you're obligated to receive three shipments before you can cancel your membership. Judging by their lackluster selection, I would be doing just that (after picking up a few new releases I have my eye on at the obviously appealing reduced rate.) Before joining, I'd like to know if their books are the same editions one would find in retail, or if they have their own "club editions" (different size, modified artwork, etc.) Such editions would be a dealbreaker, but if they are standard retail copies, then I'm definitely in.
