Dear Microsoft

[silverthorne]

This is my gentle suggestion that you fuck off.

Thanks for setting my Zune up so that it would fry its memory after a fatal error and then not reprogram itself when hooked up to the computer, thus rendering it into a useless brick that can't even double as a paper weight.

NO love, and a lot of cussing.

Me.

(Yes, I know, it's Microsoft and I should've known better. Let me cry in peace, 'kay?)

PS to MS--You get half of a grudging point for making the computer software capable of re-downloading the free tracks I've been collecting since June so that I can at least burn them onto a CD before I might possibly have to delete the whole program, depending on what I get to replace the brick.

Still hate you, though.

Oh! If it's a Visa- or Mastercard-secured debit card, it ought to work...that's the premise behind the branding, anyway. My SIL uses her debit card at Amazon all the time with no problems, anyway.

Agree with everything you say! My iPod is traveling music :)

ORLY? (Heh, internet chat).

I might try that then, after some price checking. 'Course, I have at least a week to research--$40 is not going to be enough to buy any player, and that's all I have available to me ATM. (Good budget, but not a lot of spending money for the next 6 months. Then again, I'd rather not fall behind on bills...that would be a lot uglier than not having travel tunes for a while).
