I received an email from Amazon too, but they recommended I buy Bette Midler Sings the Peggy Lee songbook! Not sure why.

I just got an email offer for 30% off of Whitesnake! Blegh! They say "We've noticed that customers who have purchased Audio CDs by Sonic Youth also purchased Gold." I think something is wrong over there...
