You wouldn't have to "apologize in advance" if you didn't do what is
clearly not allowed on si-list.

Vendors (be they hardware, software, books, or whatever) shouldn't
utilize si-list as a marketing venue. Almost without exception, the
other 4000+ subscribers to si-list abide by this rule. Unfortunately
some feel that rules are for everyone else.....

It is one thing for a reader to recommend a book to others on the list,
but quite another for the author/publisher/vendor to blatantly make a
not so thinly veiled sales pitch (along with a free audio cable to
sweeten the deal). 

Don't do it !!
