Found Footage: They iScrewed me again

Very funny but it makes me weep with self-pity at the same time.
I saved up to buy an 80 Gb iPod on an upcoming business trip to the US, in order to take full advantage of 2 for 1 exchange rate. And what an effort it was to actually purchase the damn thing as Fry's were unable to accept my Halifax VIsa credit card and after several attempts, I ended up having to withdraw a huge wad of cash (plus fee) to hand over to Fry's. The week after I got back they released the new version in the ipod where the new 80Gb was £25 less in the UK than I paid for old version in the US. Ho hum.

Fair and balanced comedy from the red channel

Funny sketch and very balanced.

Although they complain about the iPod changing, they REALLY skewer pc's at the end. "We always suck" is pretty much a pro-Apple stance, I'd say.

This thing is a GREAT Apple ad!

What saves it is that they acknowledge that PC's suck and do a pretty good zune rip-off at the end.

MADtv funnier than SNL??? Let me guess, you voted for Bush in both elections too?

First madtv is funnier than SNL has been in recent years. But you just have to know when you buy an apple product, got to get it in the sweet spot of the development cycle or be rich.

yeah, this is such an old lame complaint. i felt the same way when apple released the cheaper iphone: no one _made_ you go out and buy one, so don't bitch when something new comes out. i have a 400 mhz powermac, that until recently, has worked as well as the day i bought it. it only seems slow when i use it after my mbp 2.2.

Can you believe it. I bought a car and sure enough if they didn't come out with a new model to replace the one I just bought.

Darn car manufacturers.

(some people will whine about any thing)

Ugh. It's true, apple doesn't go shouting about before they update a product (look at today's surprise server and mac pro updates) but people just need to use common sense. If it's been a while since a product has been updated, just wait! I guarantee you will be satisfied with your new piece of the apple pie.

You and Leo Laporte. What is this, Pundit iScrew Syndrome?
