Blogger Aran Johnson got a Zune and the poor guy is dealing with yet another problem: Zune’s software only imported 600 of 3200 songs he had on his hard drive. Now before you start going “Bullshit! He bought them off iTunes and he’s a douche” and all that jazz, know that the majority of Aran’s music was ripped from CDs he owns. He tells of how he ripped his prized ABBA CD he bought in iTunes and was left with 15 songs. When he went to import them to his Zune, the software recognized one track. Terrible. This is yet another reason why Microsoft should have just fixed the incredible amount of bugs with the Zune and waited another month to release it. Sorry Aran, we feel for you dude but next time try ripping something that isn’t ABBA – maybe Zune was trying to do you a favor.
Zune Fails to Import All Music Files [Aran World]
This is really disappointing with all the negative press. I pre-ordered a Zune a couple months ago and it is to arrive this weekend. I’m just at the point that I think I’m going to just return it because I don’t want to open the sealed box and discover these kinds of problems. I was so very much looking forward to this new gadget. :0(
But I’m still never going to buy another iPod. My first one was just as much a piece of sh*t.
I’m think the Creative Vision: Zen W is maybe the way to go.
might be, webonics. seriosuly.

ABBA is such an easy target. But there is pop genius in those harmonies.
Why don’t you just stick to the tech stuff and leave the music criticism to the others.
I agree with Renfru…
A little bit out of the topic, I’m a fellow reader from Malaysian,.. and I thought that little shinning sticker on the ABBA cover looks familiar. It’s how we differentiate original from pirated CDs, DVDs, Software and such. The government implement the system with the shining holographic sticker in other to combat piracy,.. seeing how it is today,.. I don’t think it works,.. just to share ;-)
i agree with gadabouter.
sorry, on topic:
its m$’s m.o.
