The good folks at CompUSA have been running an ad all these week, offering a free $15 music download card to customers buying a new Microsoft Zune. That's not too bad of a deal, except that the $15 in downloads are on iTunes! Apparently someone forgot to tell the suits at CompUSA that current DRM issues mean that tracks purchased on iTunes won't play on the Zune. Many of the local stores apparently saw the mistake and took down any flyers so as not to look silly, but fortunately one brave CompUSA employee saved it, and posted it to the MacRumors forums.

This was almost as funny as Apple CEO Steve Jobs telling record labels to drop the DRM on their musical tracks.
