Sorta like how alot of the people on the forum are complaining about the lack of apps. Maybe the Zune HD was released to early...

Microsoft had every right to release the Zune HD when they did. The people who complain should have waited to get the ZHD instead of getting it the day it first came out. The Touch didnt have all those apps when it first came out. It didnt get all those apps over night. So I don't know why people automatically assumed that the ZHD would be loaded with hundreds of apps on launch day. Don't blame MS for that. They never said that it would be loaded with apps and games on launch day. Some want to complain b/c they spent X__ amount of money on the ZHD, when it's their own fault. They should have researched it before buying, instead of just assuming. You know what happens when you assume. I didn't get the ZHD when it first came out. I actually researched it. I wanted to know what exactly I was getting with the ZHD. I asked myself... "Do I want to buy it now? Or do I want to wait?" That's what I did. So don't blame Microsoft b/c some of yall bought the thing too early...and now don't have the patience to wait for the games, flash, and apps to arrive. Personally, I'm glad that MS is taking a while to develope these apps. I'd rather them take a while to make them and the apps be thought out and useful than them catering to the impatient people and the apps be bug-filled crap that was just thrown together in 5mins. If they did that, then these boards would be flooded with complaints like..."Man these apps suck. They're full of bugs. MS should have took their time in making them."

 

Ease Up Guy, why does every one including yourself, feel an opinion is a personal attack on you and MS. I'm not MS bashing, remember I bought a ZuneHD too, and even though i would like to see more apps, I'm still happy with my purchase.  Raging  on my opinion does nothing to further any cause other that arguing just for the sake of arguing on an online forum, BTW thats not the type of *** i'm into. And don't take this as the start of a flame war, I just don't like having my quotes misconstrued and used in malice..

But off you and that topic, anybody else reading this thread, here is an article i found interesting about Apple's App store and the fact that of the 100,000 apps they have most are unused.

Dude, it's simply annoying how some people love to blame MS b/c they bought the Zune too early and it didnt have apps. Hell, you even had some on here getting mad b/c the update didn't take place on 11/3. When did MS ever say that the update would be on 11/3? or 11/17? or 11/anything? When did they ever say that the ZHD would come loaded with apps and games? They never said that. Yet people are getting pissed b/c they made the assumption that it would be loaded with apps. Or their getting pissed b/c the 11/3 rumor turned out to be false and the 11/17 rumor may be false too, and instead of blaming themselves for being so gullable they want to basically say "oh it's MS fault". No offense to you, but it seems that people on this board love to play the blame game. Hardly anybody on here will say "Yeah it's my fault for the buying the ZHD too early" or "It's my fault b/c I didnt research it before buying" or "It's my fault for constantly believing these internet rumors regarding the updates". No, people love to say everything that MS did wrong but don't want to take responsibility for their own actions. And like I said in my original post regarding the apps, if MS rushed the apps then people would be blaming MS saying stuff like "The apps suck. They're full of bugs. MS should have took their time in making them." Hardly anybody on here will say "Well maybe if I hadn't been so impatient then the apps would have been more thought out instead of being rushed." They love to point the finger at MS as if MS ordered them to buy the thing when it first came out. It doesn't come loaded with apps, and suddenly it's MS fault. or maybe MS released it too early? That's rediculous dude. It's not MS fault for releasing it too early. It's the people's fault for buying it too early or buying it without researching what they were getting. It's just annoying how people simply love to play the blame game....love to blame everybody when things don't go their way but don't ever want to point the finger at themself. That's the point that I was trying to make in my original post. If I offended you, then I apologize. My original post wasn't meant to be a personal attack against you. If you feel that it was, then like I said, I apologize.

Okay, I am not pissed at Microsoft, I never said I was. I just want the new apps to come out STAT. I  mean, so far, all my friends have iPhones. Every. Single. One of them. I have nothing to show them how great the Zune HD really is. Also, I want to play some of these apps for myself. I mean, I am a gamer, too. Anyhow, I here now they are coming out the seventeenth, true or not, I am hopefull. 

 

Maybe get a subscription service and show them you can dowload songs for free on your device through wi-fi. This is the outstanding feature of this device. Not stupid tap-tap games.

re: No Zune apps...
WOW, I hope you were just exaggerating...I am desperate for some apps but not THAT much as to stay up all night. I'm really hoping the apps will be coming soon and develop to be like the Apple Store in a year or so!

re: No Zune apps...
Taker06,  Forgive my quickness in taking your post as an attack on me, I do agree with you, while yes I would like to see more apps and games, I can and will wait until the are released. I'd rather have them done right than have to have a million updates to kill bugs.

re: No Zune apps...
I've been a zune user since the first day it came out. I remember the music player being completely black n white. You new people need to learn how to wait. This type of programing takes time and alot of effort. I waited two years for a zune hd. stfu.. please.. and wait..
