Microsoft Zune.
I don't know about anyone else, but I think Microsoft is stupid to release the Zune. It's nothing but another stupid attempt at an iPod killer. From what I read as well, the software leaves a lot to be desired compared to iTunes. I hear that the Zune software is nowhere near as seamlessly integrated as iTunes is with iPod. But I'll give it a chance. I won't bad-mouth it too much. When I get a job and a chance to buy one, I'll give one a test drive. I'll give it a fair, unbiased chance, though if Microsoft wants to keep me with a Zune device, they might want to make the Zune software for Mac OS, because, yes, when I get about $2,000, I AM buying a MacBook. I don't care what anyone says, I like Macs, so I'm going to buy one.
Speaking of giving products test drives, I'd love to have a lot of money to use just to test products, because there is so much that I may never get to experience because I can't afford it. I hadn't known just how cool iPods were until this year. And people at school tend to ask me what I think about this and that, and I can't ever say anything about what I never used. Whatever.
Back to that Microsoft Zune. The Zune is stupid because it doesn't support the PlaysForSure standard of Microsoft's, forcing you to buy more individual songs for individual prices (like iTunes) rather than all-you-can-stand downloads like you can with some of the other subscription services that support PlaysForSure. Microsoft to me just makes no sense sometimes. Sure, they may have the most used desktop OS, but I'm quickly starting to appreciate Linux/UNIX and Mac OS (Unix based) more than Windows. Microsoft would have to make some big strides in OS technology before Apple releases OS X Leopard is released, else I might not buy a media center PC ever.
Well, I complain too much. I shall go to bed, it's somewhat late here. 11:11 is kinda late, I guess... and ironic, I like that song... 11:11 PM by The All-American Rejects. Awesome song.
Seeyas.
