This offer is actually very legit. The last time I was in Charleston, they had a huge sign on the door with the same promotion.They've been doing this for a good while apparently because I haven't been to Charleston in almost a year. But anyways, it's a great offer, but think of all you have invested into CDs in the past...that's a lot of cash, the store is going to make mad profits of people aching for an iPod.
Of course there's a catch you morons.... the CDs you trade in have to be worth a lot more than the stupid iPods they give you. And you're stupid so you fall for it. Or you foolishly think you're going to walk in there with 175 copies of some lame local band's CD that they'll reject.Man, you kids are downright dumb sometimes... this is no great deal, unless you just want to cash out your expensive CD collection for an iPod. Then when that stops working, you're SOL because you dumped all your music. Yea, you can pirate a hundred plus CDs and burn extra copies for yourself, because, your lame time isn't obviously worth anything....
I rather Like diggs like this.. I really like the comment about local music stores buying used cd's for ~$4.00 a piece, it gave me a great idea to call my local shop which buys back at an average of $2.00 per cd. But still cool to know. Thanks for this.
Why not just copy all your original CDs, then send them in? You're just going to want to transfer them to the iPod anyways ;)But as someone else already suggested, it's a bad deal. Not that your CD's are worth $15 a piece, but they are determining the value of your title, so they likely don't want your crappiest CDs either.

This is such a bad idea that i suspect "Price Right Photo" is behind this.
