MSN Music Purchases Not Compatible with Zune
lewiz writes "The BBC is reporting that music purchased at MSN Music will not play on the new Zune music player." From the article: "The problem has arisen because tracks from the MSN Music site are compatible with the specifications of the Plays For Sure initiative. This was intended to re-assure consumers as it guaranteed that music bought from services backing it would work with players that supported it. MSN Music, Napster, AOL Music Now and Urge all backed Plays For Sure as did many players from hardware makers such as Archos, Creative, Dell and Iriver. In a statement a Microsoft spokesperson said: 'Since Zune is a separate offering that is not part of the Plays For Sure ecosystem, Zune content is not supported on Plays For Sure devices.'"
Who does she think she is? That girl has tangled with the wrong man! No one says "no" to Gaston! Heh heh. Darn right. Dismissed! Rejected! Publicly Humiliated! Why, it's more than I can bear. More beer? What for? Nothing helps. I'm disgraced. Who, you? Never! Gaston, you've got to pull yourself together.
Gosh it disturbs me to see you, Gaston Looking so down in the dumps
Every guy here'd love to be you, Gaston
Even when taking your lumps There's no man in town as admired as you
You're ev'ryone's favorite guy Ev'ryone's awed and inspired by you
And it's not very hard to see why
No one's slick as Gaston No one's quick as Gaston
No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston
For there's no man in town half as manly
Perfect, a pure paragon
You can ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley
And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on
No one's been like Gaston
A king pin like Gaston
No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston
As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating
My- what a guy, that Gaston
Give five "hurrahs!" Give twelve "hip-hips!" Gaston is the best And the rest is all drips
No one fights like Gaston
Douses lights like Gaston
In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston
For there's no one as burly and brawny
As you see I've got biceps to spare
Not a bit of him's scraggly or scrawny
(That's right!)
And ev'ry last inch of me's covered with hair
No one hits like Gaston
Matches wits like Gaston
In a spitting match nobody spits like Gaston
I'm espcially good at expectorating
(Ptooey!) Ten points for Gaston!
When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs Ev'ry morning to help me get large And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs So I'm roughly the size of a barge
No one shoots like Gaston Makes those beauts like Gaston Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston I use antlers in all of my decorating Say it again Who's a man among men? And then say it once more Who's the hero next door? Who's a super success? Don't you know? Can't you guess? Ask his fans and his five hangers-on There's just one guy in town who's got all of it down And his name's G-A-S- T - G-A-S-T - E - G-A-S-T-O - oh! GASTON!!!
How can one justify supporting (via ISP) adults who have a sexual interest in children? Look, we cannot shoot peds (unfortunately), but DON'T make their child eroticism easier. I'm no huge fan of Verizon, but I have zero problem with this decision.
Bet most of them had a chance to say goodbye and wrap up their affairs...
It's not wasting time, I'm educating myself.
Borat says: "Plays for sure pause NOT!"
I'm even smarter! I don't buy my music from anywhere!
