What Do You Want Your Media Player to Do?

Via my YouTube inbox, comes a response from tanakax25:

In your video explains the “Top Five Reasons to Buy a Zune” you mentioned the inability for the Zune to play games, and use any form of communication. You didn’t necessarily put down the Zune for it, but it did, in a way, sound as though they were “cons” to the device. First off, communication, in my mind, should not even be mentioned in this video, as you know (or I expect someone like you)to know, it is just plain stupid to compare an ipod Touch / iPhone to a Zune, or anything else in the Zunes category. After all, the iPod Touch is in a league of its own. and the iPhone, well, its a phone. On to the games, well, all I can say is, “who cares?” Really, they’re just games. Maybe others care, but they can decide for themselves if it’s really that important.

I’m glad that Microsoft is finally giving the iPod a run for the money, but still believe that mobile gaming and communication are becoming increasingly crucial – especially with Sony announcing support for Skype on the PSP. The iPod alerady has a small set of games, and wait until you see what happens after Apple releases their iPhone SDK.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with the Zune – and if you have a Zune now, I’m confident the best is yet to come. Microsoft must continue to push out firmware updates regularly.

Optimize 3.0 is an excellent tool to have in your arsenal. Use it to clean up your computer, free up space by removing junk files, and to generally speed up your computer. You spend a lot of time using your machine... don't you want it to run at its optimum speed and efficiency?
