Default SlotMusic On Sale

I just saw a Best Buy ad selling SlotMusic cards and players. The price for the music wasn't as good as discussed here -- $14.99 -- although that's comparable to many non-sale priced CDs. I think you could also buy a player bundled with the card for $30.

That's what I figured - they'd screw up on the pricing. $14.99 is too expensive. It's got to be $9.99 or less. Hell, I bought the new Nickelback album today from Amazon.com for $3.99! Sure it's a one day price, but $14.99 is just WAY too high IMO.

I typically try not to pay more than $12 for a CD (and usually under $10), but if you go to mall stores in the U.S., they typically charge $14-$15, so it's not out of the ballpark, especially when I suspect that MicroSD cards cost more than CDs (although probably not much more nowadays, when I can get 2 GB cards for $6-$7 online).

It's not what we'd like, of course. I also wonder whether that $14.99 is list price or a discount (or even a premium because nobody else has them yet?).
