How to hate a zune, If you really must …
Dont like all this cheer around the holidays? All this jolly’ and merry’ flying all ’round. Want to find something to channel your negative energy to … Here I present all the reasons to hate; correction – utterly despise the zune. Any pretence of logic is completely accidental …
- Its a BRICK !
- Zune works “flawlessly” with the zune market place, where flawlessly is defined as: with a probability of 0.15.
- The screen is big … oh SO BIG ! but it has the same resolution as the screen on another media player whose name shall not be mentioned. You get lower quality at a very irritating sideways orientation.
- In pursuit of achieving zen, the controls are not labelled neither do they icons indicating their function. Thus dicovering the functions of the buttons
- No touch sensitive wheel, No mechanical wheel, No scroll pad, No touch screen… You only get a up key and a down key. Really, what more do you need?
- Its thick. As thick as a BRICK.
- The wireless feature(s) are very power efficient. It efficiently eats up all your power.
- The UI is very intuitive … If you are a zune employee that is.
- The Zune has excellent interoperability with Vista. Here “Excellent” is defined as works with a probability of 0
- It is brown .. like a brick !
- The zune will not function as a USB hard disk. Really who would want such a thing?
- The team has been very creative with the wireless. You can wirelessly trade songs with a random stranger. All it takes is 1 hour to transfer a song which you can listen for 15 minutes
- You cannot wirelessly sync with your computer. Who would want such a thing?
- You cannot buy a song wirelessly, Who would want to do such a thing ???
- You can see album art at huge sizes and really really really crappy resolutions …
- ITS A BRICK !
