Flickr Find: Get a Mac ad with a twist



I was Zune hunting on Flickr this afternoon and came across this mock-up of a "Get a Mac" style ad with a Zune twist. Actually, I enjoyed the whole "iPod Etc" photoset so you should check it out.

Perhaps you'd all like to have some fun by contributing a few lines of copy to this fakery in the comments? You won't win any prizes or anything, but I promise to pull out my favs and round them up over the weekend. I'll start:

"I'm an iPod. And I'm a Zune."

Your turn...

2. Zune: I use a dirty little trick called DRM. People give me money for music thinking they now own it, but truth is that they can only play that music on a Zune, so they are trapped in to my closed system.

iPod: Hey! Me too! Maybe we're not so different after all...


LOL. Thats is just so true

Mac: "Hey, what you got there PC"
PC: "Oh this old thing, its a Zune, it means I'm social!"
Mac: "Thats fantastic PC! I've been social for years working seamlessly with both Macs and PCs through iTunes"
PC:"Oh yes, after the three hour installation and having to repurchase all my music I can share it with all the other Zunes"
Mac: "So how many of you Zunes are out there?"
PC: "I think I saw one on CNN once..."
Mac: "Oh, I see your wearing a suit similar to mine. Is that a Walmart label on it?"
PC: "Oh yes, if you wait a few years the fashionable stuff always makes it into Walmart, except its velcro instead of buttons. I'm down with the cheap immitation, its all about the kids."
Mac: (!)

Zune: Hello, I'm Zune.

iPod: Oh, Zune is it.

Zune: What? I'm the product of a broken home. My folks are not cool, never have been, and now I'm here, competing with the coolest kid on the block. I can't be loved because I'm not worth loving, I'm a cheap imitation of...

iPod: Oh, I've got things to do... Why don't you change your name?

Zune: To, What?

iPod: iSuck.

RE: LittleJoe

“So how long before all those nasty Windows viruses make their way to the Zune and then start tirelessly spreading themselves?”

Flashback for ya, buddy:

In mid-October, iPod was shipped with windows virus AT BIRTH! It didn’t even require wireless sharing!!

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, MrWhite: the supreme example of a mac fanboy who settled for less and is ashamed to admit it.

Here's another one I came up with...

iPod: I’m an iPod
Zune: and I’m a Zune

iPod: Hey Zune, I just wanted to wish you luck because you are new and all.
Zune: Thanks, but I doubt I’ll need it. You think you have cool features, check out these features.

Zune squeezes really hard (trying to wirelessly pass song), constipated look.

iPod: Are you ok? You know they have medicine for that?

Zune: No no, I’m feeling fine, I’m trying to share songs wirelessly, but…(gets sad) I don’t have any friends.

iPod: I’ll be your friend and share songs with you.

Zune: No, you have to be a Zune.

iPod: You know you don’t have to go through all that effort to let your friends listen to your music?

iPod walks up to Zune and sticks earbud in Zune’s ear; iPod starts rocking out.

Zune: You just blew my mind!

IPOD: Hello, my name is iPod, and it's no secret that my interface is really Creative.

ZUNE: Yes it is! Creative *minus* $100 million!

@ Twista, who the hell uses the FM radio function, and the voice recorder? I use an iPod so I can listen to "my" music and not commercials. Multifunction devices are stupid and usually aren't done very well.
