“It Costs $30,000 To Fill An iPod”
I just thought of how Microsoft has managed to generate good buzz lately, releasing Windows 7 RC 1 free for everyone (for a year) and so on, but then someone at marketing just had to release something like the video above.
The ad features Wes, a “certified financial planner”, telling you how stupid the huge storage capacity on iPods is when it’ll cost you a whopping $30,000 to fill it with music bought from iTunes. So what’s the smarter alternative, oh unbiased financial planner? Well, it’s a Microsoft Zune with the $14.99/mo Zune Pass. $15 is way cheaper than $30,000. Even for Steve Ballmer.
