Modern Warfare 2 Map Pack Detailed And Over-Priced

Last week a pretty clever ad hit the web, which was advertising the first Modern Warfare 2 map pack DLC.
Details of which maps will be included came out today, so without further a-do, here's the list.
    New maps: 
  • "Salvage," a snowy junkyard fortified by stacked debris and crushed cars 
  • "Storm," an open industrial park littered with heavy machinery
  • "Bailout," a multi-level apartment complex
  •  
    Modern Warfare(the first) maps: 
  • "Overgrown," which features a massive dry creek bed
  • "Crash," a war-torn urban environment 
The pack looks pretty decent, but here's the kicker, its going to cost you 1200 Microsoft Points which is $15. Now $15 might not seem like too much money when you're comparing it the $60 price point of Modern Warfare 2 itself, but for a simple map pack, that's a lot to ask.
Setting this type of price point sure isn't helping Activation's image of "The evil empire", but I'm starting to think they don't care too much.
This DLC is coming out on Xbox Live first, and it will be hitting PSN a month after that.
