I'd buy some white earpod things, and when someone was like "cool u got a ipod dude", I'd whip out my brown zune, and let them know, that I indeed did NOT own an ipod.

is there a name for feeling both smug and lonely at the same time

put a cool background on it, some of the included ones were pretty good

maybe listen to the radio with the built in tuner, idk if it was both am and fm or just fm

thats about it, maybe try to find someone to do the wireless share with

The first generation and later Zune devices included a number of social features, including the ability to share songs with other Zune users wirelessly. Songs that had been transferred over wi-fi could then be played three times over three days.

"We have decided to exit the Zune category because it just did not have the appeal we had anticipated," said a GameStop spokesperson.

a couple of years ago i walked past someones desk at work and they had a brown zune sitting there. i did a double take and stopped to check i wasn't imaging things. it had headphones connected so i guess it was still chugging along rather than just being a curio. they weren't there to ask.

i'd spend money on a media player with any sort of tactile control that I operate basic functionality while not looking. clicky wheel ipods were the best.
