I've heard it is and it isn't. Regardless of whether it is or not, you will wind up having to sign up for 3 different 'trial' services from other companies using your credit card in order to make it work, from what i understand. Once you have signed up for these other services, you're supposed to be able to get an iPod.

will they end up sucking money out of your account?

If you don't unsubscribe before the trial period is over - I think it's one of those type of things.

I started to go through it myself, but stopped when they asked for credit card info.
