Only the studios could make that happen. It's really not a fault of MS or Apple. It's the damn studios. It is annoying across the board.

Yall aren't hearing me. With the newest firmware Wifi is more than just sharing tracks with other Zunes. It's already been opened to allow syncing. Now, lets talk firmware upgradability. What other company has taken the bold step of releasing a firmware upgrade to early adopters of the original player? What other company has committed to further development and feature roll out of not only their existing devices, but their future devices? The Zune is a device that can and will continue to be developed. I don't have to worry that with the next device release, my current one will be obsolete. How many ipods have you folks gone through because something newer and more feature packed was released? It's insane to think about. Yeah, Mac makes a good product, but mack is also abusing their customers by releasing newer and better product year after year forcing them to purchase new product to enjoy the newest features. Folks need to peep game...cause Apple is playing a lot folks..playin em HARD.
