Zune 30GB Deaths Occurring!?! Happy New Year!

Posted by Adam Stafford on 12/31/08

Have you been plagued by the Zune30 death yet? I have been getting numerous emails and forum messages regarding the Zune 30GB dying. My neighbors who both have Zune 30s have confirmed that their devices are dead. We are hoping Microsoft will have a speedy remedy (rather than wait for 2009) for this mass hysteria of device death related to the Zune 30GB manufactured in 2006. Well Happy New Year, it should be fixed by the time you get sober, hopefully!

We have identified an issue with the Zune 30 gig not starting and have a full explanation and guidance located here.

The Zune Social might be slow or inaccessible. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience!

Your tongue is not worthy to utter the name of one such as Steve Ballmer (Bless on him)! But I shall answer dis question! You see the Zune is the most sophisticated device ever created by man! It was programed with sooooo very many features that even the whole of Microsoft cannot remember them all! What other device that pretends to compete with the Zune has such a feature? A self-improvement-vacation day mode? NONE! None I tell you! You all should bow and kiss Mr Ballmer’s naked unwashed feet and praise the fates that such a one as he even bothers to explain anyting at all to your most unworthy selves!
