We're (not) gonna Zune, Zune, Zune our Zune

Wired Magazine looks at the chances for Microsoft's Zune player against the iPod.

"Through several generations of MP3 players, consumers have consistently chosen the ones that work simply (and simply work), over those that offer advanced features and added complexity."

It. Just. Works. Why is simplicity the hardest thing in the world?
