Microsoft goes iPod

Posted: May 29th, 2004 | Author: Bea | Filed under: Geeky | 5 Comments »

Interesting: “Microsoft Corp., the world’s largest software maker, will begin selling portable music players for as much as 80 percent less than Apple Computer Inc.’s iPod. The Microsoft-branded devices will “look and feel” as good as the iPod for as little as $50.” [Found in the Denver Post, via Replikka]

    I’ve been putting off buying an mp3 player for months because I can’t make up my mind/$$$/I don’t know sh*t about them! But heck, for $50, I’d be more willing to try one!

    I have a CD player that plays MP3′s but I have heard many good things about the IPOD. I have not bought one because of the price, so I will be waiting to see about this thing for sure.

    I hate to break it to you all, but that article was a mistake. It seems that the Denver Post doesn’t know how to quote someone. Read this:
