Game Theory much? Besides that, a *LOT* of albums are gapless. I'm pretty sure that album where you play it backwards to the Wizard of Oz is gapless too (some famous rock album that I can't remember the name of...RJ or Bearfield probably know what I mean with their rock lovin asses)

How does WMP let you do more edits?

The millions of people who buy iPods.

Ok, that's one example. There's a shitload of different devices that can expand the capabilities of the iPod (transfer pictures from a digital camera to the iPod, live recording, etc.)

You have to hack it. Fuck and that.

Most people are fanboys like that. If Zune had the features I wanted and worked on my Mac, I wouldn't care if MS made it or not. Hell, I waited overnight in the rain for an M$ product (360)

You can put those on Zune?

No, not scroll through songs. The search feature Ninja Turtle Man was talking about.
