So it has begun. Because boredom creeps in quickly with all the waiting I do at airports and during flights, multiply that with 4 flights minimum every week, I get tired of reading and watching planes take off and land pretty quickly. So I decided it was time to get a music player.
And I surely wasn’t gonna get the Zune. I went straight for the Apple iPod Nano. Well after fiddling with it for 5 minutes, I was ready to upgrade to the iPod Touch. I feel like I sold my soul to that fucking company. But the interface is brilliant and the sound quality impeccable. Sigh. I hate Apple because of its drones selling the product to everyone like it’s the fucking answer to every question. Apple, Apple, Apple, Apple, Apple. The answer to life, the universe, and everything is no longer 42, it’s Apple – most of the drones won’t even understand the 42 reference. I wish those drones would shut the fuck up sometimes.
But let’s face it. iPod is awesome, I admit it. There I said it. What I dread the most is that iPod will be like an iSeed, a gateway drug to something stronger like an MacBook or something like that when I tire of this crappy Dell laptop and then I’ll be one of those fucking drones parroting the bullshit. I can see it now. Kill me now.
Come into the light, come into the light
LMAO
I keep hearing that from all the creative folks at the circus.
Welcome to the light and shiny side little Jedi, Welcome
I got one of those two, and I really like it. I’ve had one technical glitch (it kept rejecting the charger) but I managed to fix that with a reset.
However, I was on the Metro recently and the guy next to me was using a player I hadn’t seen before. Really interesting form factor (especially for right-handed people). It’s about the size of a Nano, but shifted on its side, so the button run up the right-hand side of the unit. Very compact, and excellent screen.
By coincidence, I was in Future Shop that night, and I saw it. Creative Zen. I tried it out and it was really sweet. As easy to use as the iPod, less expensive, and it has a built in FM radio.
If I didn’t already have the iPod, I would have bought one for sure.

Oh, and guess what else it has… EXPANDABLE MEMORY!
How radical is that? (At least in an MP3 player, which is retarded.)
Sweet. But it doesnt loks as slick as the iPod
IPod, yeahhhh!!
It saved Apple from bankruptcy… Is that a good thing?
congrats on the purchase, really essential when travelling selon moi!
Most drones won’t understand the reference? have you seen Marvin in the new film? How Apple can you get?
As I said, MOST…
Don’t band me in with Apple fanboys, son. I have a Toshiba laptop, and I use me Nokia phone for MP3s. Its the self-satisfied advertisments that swith me off. All that sugarsweet indie…ewww.
