Loony Zunes

Thus far, I’ve successfully avoided the siren song of the Apple iPod and not bought one. And I fully intend to keep it that way. Now, of course, Microsoft has arrived in the same market space with its Zune device. I was asked by a friend recently, knowing of my love/hate relationship with all things Microsoft, whether I would be buying myself a Zune. My instant gut reaction was to classify it in the "hate" camp. Now I’m pleased to see that I will be able to quote evidence to back up my initial intuition, courtesy of Andy Ihnatko’s review of the Zune in the Chicago Sun-Times.
