It's showing you how you can stay in one place, and take a journey throughout your world of music, video, pictures and radio, without actually having to go anywhere.
@Auby22 so let me get this straight... you dislike all ipods because one froze on you? I've had 3 in my life and have never had that problem. You really shouldn't judge a whole product line on one faulty product... It's like saying all mexicans cant speak English after seeing one speak Spanish.
@sooperdoopershortpea i never put it that way, i'm saying that was my experience with them. ipods may be fine for other people, I just don't like them. please don't compare my opinion of mp3 players with racism.
A lot of people say that zune sucks and nobody has one but recently i have spotted a lot of people that actually have one, at the gym coffe, campus, mall. Maybe they are actually selling some.
I have owned both but after playng with the ipod I never loked back! Competition is good. It gives us better devices but in my opinion the Zune ain´t even an cometitor!
go fuck ur self idiot... cant u read idiot..... it says ishit ... the word shit has one i excluding the fudgin i in the front.. and i dont have a fuckin ipod... RETARD.. i have a Microsoft Zune Gears of War Special Edition with my name engraved 120gb fucker....
The Ipod is the way to go! More accessories! Microsoft jumped into the battle too late! I don't get it! I guess its just another way to confuse the everyday consumer (Especialy the old people who want to be hip!) lol
Apple's Ipods huge success was partly achieved by thier use of Ingenius and groundbreaking ad techniques, ie. Think diffrent campaign, Backround Dancing Ipod people. Now Zune is trying to renovate Apple's whole advertising scheme and persuade people to get zunes. Who knows maybe in a few years Steve Jobbs may find himself competing side by side with Microsoft in the music industry.
Omg i bet Steve Jobbs is watching all these movies about Zune vs iPod and when he sees the vids showing Zunes better,He rates em 1 star and Bill rates his zune vids 5 stars lol..
Don't hate, problem solved. If you feel that there is a shortcoming in a product, that's your opinion. MS has more resources than you could ever imagine, as does Apple and many other companies. Just because you don't like one product from a company does not mean they will continue to "suck" or whatever you think. Get over it, it's an add for an MP3 player.
I dont see whats wrong with all of you disliking the zoon. Theres absolutely not a thing wrong with it, its cheap, and its features are better than lame ipods.
I like the ad but is very misleading. Many of my friends thought that the new Zune was gonna be touch screen since the girl is touching the screen, when it's just touch pad.
no actually apple patented the touch screen. genius if you ask me. but yea that would be misleading. i got my 30G zune last christmas and i absolutely love it.
Apple did not patent the touch screen. They may have patented multi-touch (I think they did) but not touch screens in general. MANY non-Apple devices have touch screens.
this commerical and song rocks. i love it. the comeerical has a sort of 'alice in wonderland' feel to it, and the song has nice rhythm and cool lyrics. thank you for posting it. and thanks to the person with the song info. peace.
I actually like this add, unlike the rest of you fuckers. I may not get it completely, but the song is kickass (kudos to the person with the song info*, and it fits the overall direction of the ad.
You make it you? No, we (the public as a whole) made it obsolete and irrelevant. Microsoft's Zune is dead, and they really should move on instead of making ugly and insipid ads like this one.
Why not spend the money improving Vista, Microsoft? I didn't pay all that money for the shitty operating system I wound up with!
For a company with the resources that Microsoft has, that is a strangely uninteresting ad. I've been eager to see the new ads since I read about them a few days ago, but I must say that I'm not impressed. I can't see how they sell any benefit or create any memorable idea in the viewer's mind.
Strongly disagree with you! I wonder what YOU think is a good commercial? Please give an example. I want to know what meets your (too) high standards, since this commercial obviously can't meet yours. This is a very good commercial.
Yeah, that's EXACTLY where I got the song's title.
I was watching the Heroes' Marathon, and in the episode "Collision", they were showing quick present situations of all the characters, and the song "Eyes' was playing in the background. Pretty neat.
Ammm... Zune is the 2nd most popular MP3 player in the world (while that is a distant 2nd, it's still 2nd). It's far from dead, and if it simply wasn't MS you wouldn't be trolling.
Actually it's somewhere between 3rd and 5th depending on the given quarter. SanDisk has been consistently ahead of the Zune by about a 3:1 margin (with the iPod ahead of it by a good 20:1 margin).
its not that its artistic, its that its obviously done to be "cool" which gets really old fast. Art is best when its strictly about self expression. To me this ad only expresses the need in making money through copying trends made by others.
Artists need to eat too you know. A couple years in the real world will show any artist that if you get a chance to make something like this and someone will pay you for it, you would be grateful. Just because it's funded by MS doesn't take anything away from it. Look into a little art history This isn't new
Oh I'm absolutely aware of the need to eat and thus you're missing my point. My rant is strictly based on how so many corporations suck the life out of art by attempting to copycat trends. >>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>If MS wanted to, they could have funded an ad which was fresh and unique, but they didn't. They basically went with being safe (which is not artistic) and followed other catching styles which were developed already. Unfortunately for them, they're unaware that they only hurt themselves by doing this. Just look at the lukewarm responses already. Whats sad is, this ad totally echos their products being released today.
