This version also comes with some sort of action figure. (Also at BestBuy for $30 + shipping, take your pick). The monthly fee is $15, but if you get into it you'll get your money's worth if you count all the hours of amusement. The dev team really cranks out new content in this game, too. There is also this City of Heroes Subscription Card if you happen to be giving this as a gift. |

MGM DVD Class Action Settlement

Want the short version? MGM sells DVDs as "widescreen" when they really should have said "pan and scan" (IE, chopped off sides). Someone finds out. Big class action lawsuit ensues. You can either get a replacement copy (shipping fees might be involved) or get $7.10 per DVD. Not sure how you prove ownership - call 1-800-285-2168 to get your Claim Form. Here's the massive 325-title DVD list as a PDF. These appear to be mostly bargain-bin quality DVDs. I read the whole thing and don't own a single one. |

There is no annual fee and 0% introductory APR, Return protection up to 90 days if a merchant won't take an item back (up to $300/year). The minimum cash back levels are very meetable, which means that people who already pay bills on time can get some extra money out of this one. |
