Just picked up a 'Creative Sound blaster 5.1 Live Platinum IR' for a mere $88 or £63 its OEM, but covered by a 1 year warranty. It doesn't come with a remote, but i dont think thats important, im just pleased to get the digital outs through the 'Live drive'!;)

Woz this a good deal, or have i been stung?

did that include the 'live drive' - the front bay, with optical in/out, spidf in/out etc, or was it just the card?

and is that $69 or £69?

You got the SB Live Platinum... good deal, actually. They're thinking of just the plain 5.1 alone.
