Amazon Not Offering Audible Discount for Kindle?

I have got to admit that I have been surprised by Amazon’s persistence on not working on deals to give customers discount on their Kindles. If you haven’t seen it, Amazon has been promoting their new special offer for the iPod Touch:

The offer basically gives $100 off on eligible purchases when you sign up for Audible services for a year. Unfortunately, Kindle is not among the devices that are eligible for this deal. Now let’s not forget taht this deal doesn’t exactly give you $100 off for nothing. You will have to pay $14.95 a month for your Audible subscription. But after all is said and done, you will save $100 on your total.

Is Amazon admitting that folks don’t listen to audio-books on Kindle?

I’ve tried twice
to register and download
a free audiobook from Audible
for my Kindle
Both times they sent me a tiny file
which doesn’t seem to connect to anything
Don’t know if it’s me
but I’m not real interested
in anything that’s a lot of hassle

Forget Audible but how about like a discount if you buy a normal book or get 5 books and get a free Kindle book?
