yeah, for that price, and the trouble, I'd rather buy [or buy for someone] the CD. You have been able to rip these things in ANY format and bit rate forever.

I am not sure if this will work or if the pricing structure is right; however, the idea of buying a card in a B&M store that allows the card owner to download something off the interweb is not so new. iTunes has pre-paid cards, Wii has pre-paid cards, and gift cards for almost every store can be used online.
It seems to me that these prices seem very high but what do I know.
As an old school CD buyer I might pay a little more for a card like this if it were bundled with the physical CD. Buy the CD and get a card for an extra few dollars that lets you download the MP3 version and some extras. But for that matter, why do you really need the card? The one-time use passcode could be burned to the CD as well. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Buy the CD and get a code to let you download MP3 versions of the songs? Here's an even easier method: use a plain old DRM-free CD. Then if you want MP3 copies, use just about any media player to rip them. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Oh sony.
When will you ever learn?
The point is to move AWAY from physical media in its entirety.
This includes your special cards.

i don't understand why people actually spend so much money on digital downloads when its still not lossless.. I will never quit buying cd's until i can download the album in a fully drm free lossless file. If its not lossless one is not able to convert the music to future codecs for portable players.. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
I'm glad I'm not the only one. Lossy formats ftl. If you want downloads to replace the CD, start by matching the advantages of the CD. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Well, I think part of the idea is that you can give these to other people and they can get any album. So, it's stupid, but it's understandably stupid. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Wait, so it's like an iTunes giftcard, except... you don't get to choose the music.
Props for ditching the DRM, though, either way. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
DRM FREE! - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Is it just me or is this Sony missing the boat, again. Who wants to go to a store to buy a digital download. Besides, aren't they already offering some of their stuff in Amazon's MP3 sore? - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
This could be good for kids who dont have credit cards/ debit cards, thats the only demographic i can see this for - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Sony should have this as well as accept electronic payments on site, I wouldnt mind buying this if im already in the store buying something else. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Definitely a step in the right direction, but poorly executed. :-/ - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Well, my music acquiring goes as follows:
1. Search for song on iTunes - if it is then go ahead and buy it otherwise go to next step
2. Search for song on Amazon...
3. Search for song on Limewire
4. Search for Album containing song on Bittorrent
5. Give up
So, if Sony thinks they will make money off me by requiring me to go the store (I live in the country so would have to drive) and buy these things then it would have to be a bloody good song and one thats no available from the above sources i.e. never happen - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Why not search Amazon first? DRM free AND cheaper than iTunes! - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Why is everyone paying so much for CDs. YourMusic.com has 15,000 titles, all at $6.99 with free shipping and no limit. They're a division of Sony/BMG, so it's perfectly legit. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
This is lame. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
Well I'm a business major and I think this is dumb.
If you're going to the store, why not just buy the cd while you're there and listen to it on the way home. Chances are it'll cost less as well. Most CD's are around $10 when they're release. - Comments on Sony BMG skips DRM for Platinum MusicPass MP3 gift cards
This is not new at all. In fact I offer a Muzikcard that is way cooler then this. Also I know of 6 more companies that offer a card.
