“The Zune is a great product, and the Zune Pass (as I’ve described before) is becoming increasingly rational - particularly now that subscribers get ten free songs a month to keep. I often wonder why a company with this much money can’t just go buy better marketing. Both of the campaigns Microsoft is running these days - the ones about finding laptops and the newest one, with a cost/benefit analysis of the Zune Pass - just aren’t very robust. That is the polite way of saying that they are dumb. Saying that they are dumb is the polite way of saying they’re disingenuous, and saying that they are disingenuous is the polite way of saying that the people responsible for them should lose their jobs.”
