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…
