QUOTE (nickluto @ Jul 8 2008, 06:20 PM) i have two. i had one as a free gift when it was the Gigabeat, then I got a 20GB zune. never used it because everytime i tried to put songs on it, it would try to convert to WMA and then fail in the process, only putting like 20 songs out of my entire library on it. never fucked with it again...just got another iPod. the sharing is kinda cool, but its just a novelty, unless zune gets as popular as the iPod someday. Um... yeah, they never made a 20gb zune... and we've already been over the fact that the zune software doesn't transcode anything 320kbps and under... which is pretty much everything. (this is configurable as well.) These are both fact. Indisputable. I don't know why you're pulling this stuff out of your ass, but it's hard to take you seriously. Even if you did own a zune you obviously have no idea as to what they can and cannot do, so you should probably withhold your opinion from the discussion. As far as the sharing, yeah, all my friends do have zunes. How bout that? Oh, you forgot to mention the XNA support. Yeah, that's new. Oh yeah, or the wireless syncing. They added that. Seems like you haven't paid the zune much attention since it's launch, but i don't think you were paying attention then either. Sorry, end of fanboy rant. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.

I got two for free, the software that came with it sucked. It was a pain in the ass to use, so I switched back to the iPod, which i only had to plug in to upload my music which wasnt the case for the Zune. I picked the easier of the two. I use the same reasoning when I pick PC over MACs. I already know how to use a PC, so I dont switch to a mac to learn how to do everything over again. I dont see why you're so offended that Im not a zune kid. I tried it, i didnt like it. Suck my balls. --------------------  A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have. |

Slap bracelets were probably by far the #1 selling item in their category back in the early 90s.

Not really, no. They were popular for about a year. They were around longer than that, but not hugely popular.

Christine you were like 6 years old when they were popular, sorry but you're wrong on this one. I was in jr high and remember them being one of the popular fads the whole time.
and we're still detracting from the point here, that having an iPod is a fad. |

i was in junior high too and i remember about a year. if even that.
wikipedia says 'early 90s' which means there a 5 years tops. probably closer to 2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slap_bracelet iPod is not a fad. -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.
