Hahaha...The pic is hilarious...
I saw the article when Choopie linked it in another thread. But it is spot on. It is a complete failure of a device. It is a wonder that nobody stopped and said "Hey maybe we should not do this...."
They tried to push way too many "Deal with it" features for a market debuting device.

So everyone that buys an iPod is a trend-following MTV whore? Or maybe every single iPod ever made is complete crap, and is doomed to die within a week?
I've had zero problems with iTunes or my iPods.

Trend following MTV whore? When did I say that? Everyone has an ipod, Ive owned 2 and had problems both times, so you cant not call it a trend. I know people who havent had problems with ipods but Id rather not try my luck with that again, just another waste of 200 dollars to me.

Someone was a bit quick to assume iPod... Not to mention adding extra words he never said like "mtv whore, everyone, ipod being complete crap..."

You claim to like your Zune because it's not trendy, among other reasons. That sort of attitude is rather consistent with hatred of what one may call pop culture zombies.

- What players besides iPods could be considered "trendy?"
- Apparently buying an iPod is "being trendy"
- "Sucky hardware" isn't synonomous with "complete crap?"

Do not say everyone owns an Ipod. I for one do not own one nor have I ever owned one. To expensive. I wont waste $200 on something like that. At least not yet. Maybe when the 30 gig one drops its price. Or they give me a better discount on Ipods than their current 6%.
