Microsoft is releasing a Halo 3 version of their Zune mp3 player in
June!
I am def buying one! Here's a web site with some photos:

I bought a Zune last christmas season and when I got it I just
exploded with how much I loved it. I still enjoy it very much and I
much prefer to watch music videos on it than on my computer. It is
really, really good for watching videos. I have about 2,000 songs + 20
videos and movies on it and I still have about 10 gigabytes free.

Why would a person own such a dictatorial device??? I prefer loading playing
unloading anything I want...I bought the damn album and it's my MP3 so WHO is to
tell me squat. Mine is unblockable yours iirc can block. DMA or some crap.

Oh yeah "UP THE MAN" and "DOWN WITH FACISTS"

You're referring to DRM, not DMA... but aside from that wtf are you
talking about? Almost all the songs I own were purchased from
AllOfMP3 (straight mp3s with no DRM), the Zune plays them fine and
nothing is ever blocked. All the DRM stuff is for songs you buy from
the Zune store which I never use.

You can use it like any other MP3 player.. DRM applies to songs you
buy from iTunes, Zune store etc. Buy from AllofMP3.com, which is
legal in Russia but the RIAA doesn't like it because just like the
American right-wing sends jobs off to Mexico/India/China for cheaper
labor costs, its a two way street and that means we have the right to
import low cost music from other countries who sell it at a cheaper
price, effectively "offshoring" our music purchases.

Thankyou for the correction. I ONLY buy the cd, period and yes I'd stick to
vinyl if I could find it in outback montana. CC? I gave up on them a couple of
years ago. <shrug> I'm a bit of a luddite...in that I loath having technology
dictated.

That makes sense...the Russia reference is funny because that could be an
excellent description of where I live. As for RIAA they are over reaching
themselves and it might come back to haunt them.

History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational
basis. Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the
unknown without help. But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and
spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from
fiddling with it.

Wanker! I just don't see the need for the latest greatest and you HAVE seen why.
;^) I follow the kiss principle with stuff. All I ever need is 155 miles of
music anything more has turned out to be superfluous. The current system is
mostly crap but it's got decent sound and If I don't like the current playlist I
just swap out a chip and keep going. It's cheap no named and disposable just
like the girls I dated 20 years ago.

Oh Calgary is right you know...US89 is a kick and a half. ;^)

I don't even know what a "Zune" is let alone own one.

I'm thinking of branching out from "shit games" to "shit hardware"
soon though.

So what if he does.
I want and abundance of material things myself.
I'm working hard on becoming a multi-millionaire or a billionaire.
And when I do I'm gonna have the most badass videogaming system ever
with a huge hi-def screen, grand utopia speakers, bleeding edge game
machines, etc.
The universe is infinite and has infinite resources, so the amount of
potential wealth is infinite too. I spend a lot of time studying
business and wealth building strategies.
I want it all!
