Not really extremely common, it's extremely easy to find good cards without annual fees. The annual fees are usually for the more "prime" cards that give you more benefits and rewards.

Even so, the point was it's misleading at best to require something that has an annual fee as a condition to get the best rewards then claim the card has no annual fee.

It's not really an annual fee, though. You're paying for a product with Amazon prime -- besides free movies, photos, shipping, etc, you can now get a special card with no annual fee _just for having it_.
