The two best-selling MM kits right now are the SB kit that you saw advertised and the Media Vision kit. The SB Pro has a proprietary CD interface, meaning that you are locked into one manufacturer's drive. The MV kit has a standard SCSI interface. That means that if you want to add something like the Pioneer 6-CD changer to the MV, you can, but to the SB Pro, you cannot. On the other hand, the drive that comes with the SB Pro is faster than the Sony that comes with the MV, although the Sony is fast enough to meet MPC specs. The SB Pro also has a reputation for being very noisy, in addition to only doing stereo digitizing at have the rate of the MV card. The MV card has special shielding that makes it a lot cleaner when digitizing. I don't recall the price of the SB kit off hand, because we haven't sold any of them yet(!). We sell the MV kit for $720. If interested, you can email me for more info.
