Anyone else been invited to join Amazon Vine?

[StripeyKnickersSpottySocks]

I have and from the look of it I get to select 3 products every month which they send me for free and I have to review them. Is there a catch?

what is it?

Amazon the book website sent me an email inviting me to join. Its invitation only.

Not too many details but it says every month I can choose 3 products (dunno if just books or dvds, cds as well), often well before their release date. I think I can only choose from a list they email me. But these items will be free of charge.

sounds a bit strange to me but great if its all true. best of luck
