An Experiment in Scotch

You‘d think Microsoft would be able to throw all their resources at a prob­lem and at least come up with some­thing mediocre. Appar­ently, you‘d think wrong. This is just more proof that MS has lost their way as inno­va­tors and are just another colos­sus like IBM. Who makes the deci­sion at MS to make a music player that isn‘t even com­pat­i­ble with their own Win­dows Media Player? How do you jus­tify that deci­sion in the design meet­ing? What MS appar­ently does these days is look at other suc­cess­ful tech­nolo­gies and clones it in the worst way. This is an Ipod with none of the great­ness and twice the crappiness.

I‘m so glad I bought a Cre­ative Zen, I can‘t even stand it.
