Date: 2006-11-16 05:30 am (UTC)I was deeply offended a couple of weeks ago by some obviously planted "news" item which claimed that of course iPod users would abandon that platform in favor of the new Microsoft device because they are easily led fools who will follow the orders of the marketers. I wanted to find the hack who wrote that and smite him with some noodles. (Several hundred, uncooked, and tightly bound together.)
I am only a very recent convert to the Church of iPod, but that is because they finally added gapless playback (it only took them seven versions of the software and 5+ versions of the hardware), which makes it possible for the thing to play classical music properly. I have no idea if the Zune allows this, because none of the advance publicity said anything about it -- but then, I don't really care.
I'm not even touting one company, or even one OS, over another; I believe in using the right OS for the job, whatever it may be. Thus Windows for work-related applications, Palm OS for my handheld, Linux for my TiVo box, Apple for my music player, and goodness knows what for my cellphone.
