He was probably referring to MSN music downloads.

My third gen 15g ipod is still ticking (literally ), I may replace the battery even.
And for awhile, I thought I'd replace it with the Zune, just cause I think the brown one is dead sexy. But now...

Hey, I still think it's sexy, but the software issues = Not cool.
And I really don't care about the wireless at all.

Ive had a bad experience with ipods and right now Id rather deal with faulty software than faulty hardware. Except apple will cover it if its hardware, and it borks "every year" as you say. And stop being cheap and get something bigger than 4 gigs, or shutup and dont complain about lacking space. I thought about getting an ipod but apple didnt do anything about the hardware problem when I asked them to fix it. This happened twice. My battery constantly dies at random times on the first and second ipods Ive owned and everyone else has the same problems with them. Why would I buy a new more expensive ipod if the ones Ive had didnt work. Wheres the logic in that?

ok first off everthing has its problems....and i mean everything even apple
makes mistakes. but the first question is how much did you use your first
ipods with the messed up batteries and whe you got it did you charge it
all the way and then let the battery die all the way. If not thats part of
your problem and your own fault because you didnt let the ipod orientate
its self. also you only fit 200 songs on your for gig are you retarded that
is literaly a fraction of the space a 4 gig has i myself have 600 songs on
mine and it says im a little over half way full. Honestly i also have to say if
you cant figure your ipod out (i mean come on my grandma can figure her
ipod out) then how are you going to deal with all the software problems
on you zune. By the way last little not if you think your ipod has to few
songs then imagine half of those on your zune because you have to fill
the rest of it up with patches

But...

...that goes against the elitist nature. We simply can't do that.

I'm pretty sure I had to type a few things.

I may as well have stomped on it.

I won't own a Zune just for all the DRM hell they put you through. Not to be an ass, but I will not pay someone to listen to music I have(legal or not).

DRM angers me, but I woud like to test one and see what the hardware is about.

I saw one today and messed with it, it was pwn.  That is all.

Who actualy uses CD players any more?

Let alone JVC, Junk Vexing Crap.

Honestly.

FreshpPrince does it really take every reply being negative, sarcastic and full of spite to make you feel secure? Zenith will always sell more VCR's than RCA will. Fact is someone came out with a device and you are all dogging it before you or anyone here gets to use one and report first hand. I think the screen size is neat and the wireless transfer would have been nice if they didn't fail the hell out of the tape. But let's focus here, you can send tape to other people and keep them however long you want/view them as much as you want. Let's keep an open mind and let the product perform before shutting it out, ok guys?

Epic win!

Yeah who would imagine an OS in the RC2 stage would have incompatibility...
