re: should microsoft compensate zune 30 owners with free zune pass?
yeah great solution, sit there and wait. i usually use my zune AT LEAST 2 hours a day and i dont like not having music. I think there needs to be some kind of compensation for something affecting so many people. They should have caught that a long time ago it shouldnt of been an issue. I switched to zune from ipod a year ago and despite all the problems i have had i preffered the zune but this is unacceptable. I wont switch back but i would like compensation

ya compensation for your Zune not working for 24 hours... you guys complain and whine WAY to much. at least you didn't have to send it back to them and be without it for a couple weeks. they dont need to compensate us with anything at all. there is this primative thing called a radio that also plays music too, if 1 day of 366 without music is worth all the fuss of whining and complaining, then throw your Zune out and get a radio

No.

But...

All the whiney little sniveling snot-nosed mouth-breathing brats whose parents and school districts raised them to feel entitled regardless of effort or accomplishment should STFU and realize that no matter how many times their parents assured them that even losers are winners, or their teachers didn't grade their papers with red ink or correct behavioral issues so as not to embarrass them and passed them on to the next grade even though they were just as ignorant at the end of the year as they were at the beginning, reality is not always fair and when circumstances beyond their control cause a minor inconvenience it's not the end of the world and nobody owes them anything.

As MS and others have pointed out, it'll likely be resolved tomorrow morning.

 

Dear Zune Social:
Fix the friggin' signature links already! WTF?

re: should microsoft compensate zune 30 owners with free zune pass?
for the record i feel the same way about kids and its my generation however i also feel if you purchase something it should work and if you miss something when designing the programs for a device that isnt beyond their control that is a mistake they made while trying to get the product out as fast as possible so they could make more money

Closed Source Software for the win!!! IF they let us put whatever we want on the zune as far as OS goes, that would have never happened. They are bunch of monopolist bitches, I already paid for the product why not let me put my own software on it?

re: should microsoft compensate zune 30 owners with free zune pass?
I have rid of my Microsoft Zune and am in with the iPod touch. Mainly because of poor quality of the Zune Marketplace and the incredibly long loading times. iTunes is much faster and has more features at my disposal. I don't think that the Zune Pass will do any good, since you can't even get the Zune to work at all. I would suggest that all should just abandon the Zune altogether and get an iPod Touch. Thanks.

I was looking for the right words to express the same feelings after reading all the whiners and complainers suggest that somehow, having a Zune player is a basic human right, and being without it for the day due to an unexpected bug in the software that they deserve some sort of compensation.  People YELLING, name calling, threatening...what a bunch of pre-teen boobs. 

I say to everyone that threatened to go buy an iPod because they couldn't use their beloved Zune for a day--PLEASE!  GO BUY AN iPOD NOW and leave the Zune Community.  We don't want you here.  You smell up the place.

The anger here just because an electronic entertainment device doesn't work for a day is amazing.  It's truly no wonder that in this day and age I'm reading articles of people KILLING each other over electronics.  You all are fine examples of what is to be.

Those songs on my Zune card? They're the KIDS, not ME!!!

Good luck.  See you over at the "iTouch" forums complaining about their software and hardware like everyone else over there.

You think the grass is greener in Apple-land...it isn't.  Just different grass.

re: should microsoft compensate zune 30 owners with free zune pass?
I am frustrated that my zune froze like this...but I'm not gonna go crazy and get an ipod!  We're in a freakin recession here and I have more important things to use my money on. I do think that microsoft should compensate the 30gb users with a 1 month or 1 week zune pass for our inconvenience...I think that's fair.
