There's a reason that NASCAR is one of America's most popular spectator sports -- we like speed, danger, cars and skillfulness in driving them, and these races have all those bits in great abundance. With that in mind, ESPN has put together a great collection of everything NASCAR, from its early days on back roads in the southern US to recent triumphs and tragedies on the track, and we are giving away three copies of their four-volume Collector's Set. If you love the roar of the motors and the smell of the tires on the track, for goodness' sake, enter now. What will you be getting if you win? Included are Vol. 1: The Explosion-NASCAR's Rise, Vol. 2: The Dirt, The Cars, Speed, & Danger, Vol. 3: Greatest Drivers, Biggest Races, Hottest Rivalries, and Vol. 4: 100 Defining Moments. Also included are bonus features on each disc, examining everything from paint jobs and cheaters to interviews with Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon, and Tony Stewart. Categorized as: Contests

I mean, honestly, even when he was messing around with Wings, there was still some fun stuff in there. So give him a break why don'tcha? First up, The McCartney Years. What is it? A massive array of video goodness. Two discs full of music videos and commentaries by the man himself, plus plenty of bonuses. Then there's a third disc in there with three live performances, including his 1991 Unplugged set. Among the other bonus bits are his "Let It Be" from Live Aid, interviews, and a docu "Creating Chaos at Abbey Road." Nice. Second up, his 21st studio album: Memory Almost Full. A title I think we can all relate to. But because we're not cheap bastards we've got the deluxe CD/DVD version to give away. Here's what they tell us: Categorized as: Contests

No one knows! We barely know! Well, except for the winner. They know. And, well, us, I guess. Since we put it together. But will any of us truly understand the Mystery Box? Contemplate it as we proceed. And remember, the only way to unravel the mystery is to enter and win. Many have. Will you join them? Categorized as: Contests

Eighty freaking tracks, people. Not only have they included songs from 1939-1952 from multiple studios, but also included are essays by Nancy Sinatra in the liner notes of each of the four discs. Here's what Sony has to say about Frank Sinatra: A Voice in Time: For the first time in history, the merger of Sony Music and BMG Music enables the production of a deluxe four-CD box set to encompass Frank Sinatra's music on the first formative record labels of his career, Columbia, Brunswick, Bluebird, and Victor. Contained are 80 songs – among them two impossibly rare previously unreleased alternate takes ("From The Bottom Of My Heart" with Harry James in 1939; and "All The Things You Are" in 1945) and 11 previously unreleased radio airchecks spanning 1943-52 (from such shows as Songs By Sinatra, The Vimms Vitamin Show, and Lucky Strike's Your Hit Parade).

He's great fun to watch in great films (the first Pirates) and great fun to watch in crap films (the third Pirates), but regardless he's a damn good actor. Here's the 2002 appearance by Depp on Inside the Actors Studio. At fifty minutes or so in length, you're not going to get an in-depth interview or anything, but it's nice to have on DVD regardless. Wait, what's this? You don't have it on DVD? Well, because we love you, we've got two spare copies lying about...and they're not doing anyone any good lying around here. Want to win them? Good, because we could use the shelf space. PROCEED... Categorized as: Contests
