Chicago Sun-Times Says Stay Away From Zune Media Player
November 26th 2006 22:06
Microsoft's "iPod Wannabe", Zune.
An article called "Avoid the loony Zune" hit the Chicago Sun Times a few days ago, and the Zune fan boys must be in tears after reading the gut wrenching review of the doomed first generation media player from Microsoft.
The author rips into Zune with a tone of disgust, making sure to throw punches with each new paragraph.
"Throw in the Zune's tail-wagging relationship with music publishers, and it almost becomes important that you encourage people not to buy one." Says Andy IHNATKO, author of the Sun-Times column. On compatibility Ihnatko goes on to say "Zune is incompatible with Windows Media Player, the familiar hub of the Windows desktop media experience. The Zune app doesn't even have as many features as WMP. And why (for the love of God) doesn't it support podcasts? That's pure insanity."
Insanity indeed. The newspaper giant predicts "Zune will be dead and gone within six months."
One word... OUCH!
