Curious... I received a letter from Apple quoting me the renewal 
price on Oct. 18th. Just checked again and haven't received a revised 
email and/or price. ??

Here is the standard renewal letter I received. Note the price.

Dear Rod,

Your .Mac membership will expire on November 17, 2007 EDT. Set your 
.Mac membership to renew now so you can enjoy uninterrupted service.

As you know, we've been enhancing .Mac to make your connected life 
even easier. .Mac makes it easy to share what you create with iLife 
'08 and publish with iWeb-Photocasts, blogs, podcasts, and other web 
pages. Your .Mac account includes 10 GB of combined iDisk and email 
storage, with options to upgrade to more. Your iDisk is accessible 
directly from the Mac OS X Finder and from a browser on any 
Internet-connected Mac or Windows PC. Backup 3 makes safeguarding 
your valuable files easy and convenient with features including 
one-step backup of photos, movies, and music. .Mac Groups lets you 
bring the groups you belong to online to share messages, calendars, 
group files, and web pages. And .Mac provides a steady stream of 
discounts and member benefits on Mac-related software and services. 
Be assured, there's more to come in the year ahead.

Remember, .Mac costs only 139.00 CAD. Renew your account now.

If you have questions about the renewal of your .Mac account, click
