I'm fairly sure there is a security problem with that website. It was posted a while ago and all data (Name, Credit card #, etc.)entered is publicly available.
Edit: Missed the footnote http://www.zdmcirc.com/zdmcirc/misc/notice.html
Looks like it's safe now ...

DVD Talk Hero
Can anyone confirm that is works without the offer code? It says it is required. I got a free sub for Game Pro through www.complimentarymagazines.com. It came as scheduled.
