Creative Labs agreed to settle a class action lawsuit regarding the falsely advertised features of the Creative Labs Audigy and Extigy soundcards. Creative advertised that these cards could handle 24-bit/96khz audio, but this was rarely the case, angering many people who were planning on using this card with high end equipment. If you bought one of these cards before the end of last year (2004), and live in the US, you can qualify for a 25% discount of your next Creative Labs card (up to $62.50). The certificate is good for one year, and can only be used when buying from the online Creative Labs store. You need to provide them with the serial number of your card as proof of ownership.
