I have a first gen zune from Woot. Still works, still plays music. Doesn't give me a headache when I want to connect to another computer and copy my music back and forth.
Why is the IPOD so good?
Why the hell does the IPOD want to erase all the music when its connected to a different computer??
Someone speculated that today is the 366th day of 2008. This seems like a good possibility as the source of the problem, although those of us counting seconds since 1-1-70 will by OK until at least Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 UTC 2038.
It's funny to read people hating on iPods in this thread. If iPods died like this, we would never hear the end of it. Of course they haven't. These fuckups seems to be reserved for Microsoft *cough* Xbox 360 *cough*
@deathbychichi: Yeah, the Zuners have been amazingly gracious and calm about this, considering. Imagine if the Nano pulled some shit like this. IMAGINE.
OK, let me see if I get this straight. Microsoft has a problem (I have not checked my zune yet) and it is a big picture with almost instant coverage. Apple hoses many thousand(s) of people over Christmas with a problem updating iPod Touches to 2.2 and how many times did we see this here? Hmmm, I am let down Gizmodo!
Now, I need to get home tonight and see if my zune has wet tits up as well...
it's not the company, it's the hardware. surely enough i hate all apple products (the main reason being apple tax) and i've owned several ipods before. all of which i hate. this is my first zune and i still love the fuck out of it EVEN THOUGH this happened. I'm sure microsoft will have a fix or perhaps a warranty service which i would actually rather not have because i now live outside the US
@OMG! Ponies!: Actually, they are just trying to raise the price of Apple stock by knocking down Microsoft today. Look out, Sony - you are on the list for tomorrow.
Oops. I take that back. Sony is on the list for every day.

(or I did, but it it turns out beach water = bad... Now I <3 my girlfriends Zune!)
Give me one reason to buy an iPod classic over a Zune, besides a slightly longer battery life.

Balmer must be out of the loop on that one.

I never realized how fun it was to make up exclamations.

You hated every iPod you've ever owned...
but they were repeat buys, and you owned several.
See anything wrong with this?
