I have 700 or more CDs of my own to put on it. Nothing new worth buying in years. The last “new” artist I bought a CD of was Daughtry. The bulk of my collection is classic rock.

That was funny, since the normal way you get updates for your iPhone is to have iTunes do it automatically for you, not to go to some random website and install it...

Not to mention that you can’t actually install it via iTunes. And firmware 1.1.4 has already closed *that* hole as of several months ago.

See that’s perfect, no need to purchase thousands of songs off the internet just load your stuff and go, the zune software will automatically rip it for you if you want.

Ahh, so its different then, I see, exploits found on MS products are MS fault, exploits found on Apple products are not Apples just the stupid users fault. Gotcha.

Not quite. Notice that the exploit you mentioned required user participation.

Most MS exploits require NO user participation.

The apple vs ms argument is just like all others.

Ford vs Chevy
Cable vs Dish
DSL vs Cable
red sox vs yankees
coke vs pepsi
starbucks vs dunkin’ donuts
lcd vs plasma
etc, etc,

They all have their strengths and weaknesses.
