Even the police hates the Zune :-)

Viral marketer arrested for trying to push unpopular digital audio player

Zune's new motto: Jail-For-Sure (and not just for your DRM media)

Look out: your media will rat you out!

LOL Does 'The Social' include Law Enforcement?  Or does it mean your new cellmates??  I doubt they want to share 'songs'!

I wonder if he'll be put in the memorial cell named after Curtis, the Dell Dude?

I'd like one of those posters.

It'll cost you 2-5

Haha, you thought I meant dollars huh?

I too would like one of the posters Not because I like the
Zune (I can't stand it - I'm an iPodder all the way), but because the Zune will not soon be forgotten. It's a landmark in MS's product-history and I would like to have something to remember it by

heck, i want one and i'm an employee

i tried to reserve one on the ones we had on the wall (if you've ever been on campus, you'll know we have TONS of posters for all sorts of internal services and products), and they all disappeared before the receptionists got around to pulling them down....same thing happened with the Gears of War posters....

maybe i'll try and get some when Zune 2 comes out (no...i don't know anything ) and try and get some to Rory or someone on Channel 9 to figure out a way to distribute

".... Ok, so who's the moran / evil genius behind this thing?" - looks like some one working undercover, Zune Anit Secret Agent 007.1
 

... but liked those posters... cool they are[H]

DarthVista, is that you that got arrested?

This seems a bit over the top. On a walk down the famed 6^th street (which looks like where this occured) on Monday I noticed all the light poles were covered in clear wrap which at first I thought was a Christo copy-cat exhibit. It suddenly dawned on me, perhaps in anticipation of the music section of SXSW getting started that this was a pro-active way to prevent flyers, etc. from sticking to the poles. At the end of the conference, you run a razor blade down the pole and unwrap the mess. Made sense to me? I hope they at least allowed the fella to enter the jail with a zune thus providing hours of entertainment.

If this had occurred during the interactive part of the conference it would have only taken 20 minutes of “twitter-time” (my phrase) to raise enough cash to bail him out. After all, it was through the use of twitter streams that one was able to keep up on who/what company was sponsoring the next round
