Zune Sucks... 'Cause Why?
Posted by Damion Chaplin in "Zune Talk" @ 09:00 AM
"Bottom line Winner? iPod ....not so much for the device itself as the Zune is nicer from a screen standpoint but because content and software is king. David Shackelford did note that the other content difference is the "rent" factor of content that iTunes doesn't have. But the Zune size wise isn't the exercise device that Vlad said it would be... I think I'll still need free weights to bulk up in the biceps."
Yet another person tries the Zune (this time a Microsoft MVP) and hates it for all the wrong reasons. Seriously, it's too early to nail the Zune marketplace for lacking content. It will take time to build it. Now, if they still have no content a year from now, go ahead an zing 'em for it. And no engraving option? Woah, that must mean the player sucks. Cultural bonding through earphone color? You don't like the Zune because it didn't come with white earphones? Please. If you don't like the Zune, you don't like it. It's OK. Just don't give me rationalizations and BS reasons please.
