Last year Amazon had their blowout on the 30GB Zunes, at about $90 a pop for new Brown Zunes. My brother and I each got one; he loved his, I was a bit disappointing. I expected it to be responsive and usable, but then I remembered that it was a Microsoft product. So over the summer I sold mine to my brother's friend for $135. Not only did I turn a nice profit, he also ended up paying me $150(he ain't one'a dem real bright folks). Win-win for everyone, except my brother who keeps saying it was stupid of me to sell the Zune.

Well, now it's the end of 2008, a little more than a year after I bought mine. I have a GB Micro, Brawl, and a small flash-memory MP3 now, and like every other 30GB Zune owner, my brother has a brick, courtesy of faulty Microsoft firmware. Happy Y2K9 bug, everyone!

Who's laughing now?

Another example of why Zunes fail hard

BTW it's Z2K9 and not Y2K9

My 30 GB iPod is slowly dying.
I need to upgrade, I was thinking about the new Zune over the iPod Classic.
The touch looks real nice, but I need space. I don't know how I would be able to work things out with my 34+ GB of music.

Does anyone research anything? It's a problem only with 30gb zunes firmware. There's a bug in it that doesn't account for a leap year. It'll fix itself by noon tomorrow.
