CharlesGrey: Not sure if I'm "in", either, since I'm mostly interested in GOG and never had a closer look at this Indie bundle thing. Is it DRM-free? And how would one go about downloading those games? And can you only give away the whole bundle in its entirety?
Is it DRM-Free?
This particular bundle has DRM-free versions of each game. The Humble Indie Bundles originally were all cross-platform and DRM-free but they've since morphed. Many of the new Humble Bundles offer only Steam key, Windows only games which is really tragic (or like one game in a bundle with a DRM-free version). So any time you pick up a bundle you always want to check it first. Anyways this one is completely cross-platform (works on Mac, Windows, and Linux) and has DRM-free versions (it also has Steam key versions.)

How do you download the games?
To download, once you redeem the bundle you simply click on the download links next to the game. You can also make a quick account to chain multiple bundles (have one page with all the games you've redeemed) basically like your GOG game shelf. It does not install any form of client. It simply is a web page to keep track of what you have available to download. You can download the games as many times as you like on as many computers as you wish.

Can you only give the whole bundle in its entirety?
This is a sticky point that people disagree on. I, personally, view a bundle as one whole unit. The Humble site says to treat them as one whole unit. However, you can redeem the Steam keys individually. Which technically means a person can have the DRM-free versions, and then redeem the Steam keys and give those individual keys to other people. This results in two separate copies of each game; the DRM-free version and the Steam version, with only the DRM-free version truly linked to your Humble account. Not my cup of tea, but it's not exactly like a crack team of cyber-police is going to come bursting through the door and taze you for doing it. :P
So, is it possible to give the games separately? Yes. Do I personally do that? No.
Thanks for clearing that up! I'd say, for various reasons, someone else would probably get more out of this bundle than I would, so count me out. But I hope some of the games will end up here on GOG eventually. ( Brütal Legend already is, I think. )
Metal is awesome
Not sure if the album and song has to be from my favorite band but anyway:
Favorite band: Savatage
Favorite album: Probably Iron Maiden's Fear of the Dark
Song: I dont really have one and it changes a lot, but to have a connection with my favorite band im going to say Hall of The Mountain King
Count me in for Trine 2.

Metal band of choice: Too many to list. RATM is currently playing so i'll go with that.
Album of choice: The Battle of L.A.
Song of choice: No Shelter
My favorite metal band would be Disturbed, the album The Sickness, and the song Land of Confusion.

Thanks for the giveaway.
I actually lied. I didn't have one spare bundle, I had three! So here we go!

For craziest story ever: Starmaker. Seriously, that's absolute balls out insane. Congratulations! O_o

For great taste in music, well pretty much everyone who posted in the thread. Unfortunately I only have two more bundles, so I'm going with…. tAnt0 and QuantumLeapFrog! Wooo!

Thank you all for playing! Enjoy the rest of the day! Wooo!
