Microsoft Zune And Good Customer Service
Praise for Microsoft’s Zune … from an Apple fan site:
Apparently, Apple would rather lock you out of your iPhone and limit you to a walled garden of features. So you are being tempted to upgrade and gain new apps and other cool things, but it’s a ploy to tempt users who hacked their iPhones to upgrade and reset things to how Apple wanted them.
The Zune, on the other hand, had its software upgraded to that of the newer interface shipping on all new models. Tell me, would Apple think of upgrading their older iPods in such a way? Of course not, they’d rather you buy a new iPod just to increase sales.
Take, for instance, some other miniscule features that are disabled in the iPod Touch. Why is it that I can add a new calendar entry on my iPhone but when I turn to the iPod Touch—which runs the same exact OS—I cannot add a new entry? Now why is it that it takes a couple added lines to a .plist to enable a feature which had no bugs?
