In addition, those who pre-order the album will be entered to win a limited-edition Chili Peppers iPod and get the first shot at concert tickets for the band’s North American tour.
Customers that pre-order “Stadium Arcadium” receive an immediate download of the new single “Dani California and are automatically entered to win a 60GB iPod with the band’s signatures and logo engraved on the back. The winner will also receive iTunes gift codes for all of the Chili Peppers’ albums available on iTunes.

Just incase you didn’t catch it in the article, Stadium Arcadium is a DOUBLE album, so $20 isn’t so bad. Especially with the video and such added in as well.

yes mike, it is very greedy of apple to sell you 28 tracks, a video, digital booklet, early access to Ticketmaster, and a chance to win an 60GB iPod signed by the Chili Peppers… all for $20.

Having your band on a limited edition iPod, a very cool way to jump the shark. Two down, many to go…
