Recently there has been a lot of chatter in the blogosphere about the new Zune 3.0 firmware (but just small frys like Crunchgear and Engadget). Some guy over at Wired even went so far as to say that “Zune’s Recommendations Make Genius Look Average” right in the title. However, Lord Mac has a few words for these Rebel scum.
- The Apple recommendation engine is called Genius for a reason - because it’s as smart as you can get. So what if Zune Mixawhatever looks better and makes finding music you like easier, Apple has the Genius.
- Nobody listens to the radio any more so why would you put an FM tuner in an MP3 player? Stupid Microsoft.
- Who needs a Zune pass that lets you download unlimited amounts of music for just $14.99/month? Loyal Apple subjects have been perfectly content to pay the low price of $0.99/song for years.

Many of you have been eagerly anticipating the Empire event today in San Fransisco titled “Let’s Rock.” Many rumors have been posted on sites like Engadget and Gizmodo that may or may not be true. TechCrunch seems to think their TechCrunch50 is a bigger deal, but I will deal with them later.
Fortunately, for all those loyal to the Empire, you will be able to hear Emperor Steve unveil the newest products in the Empire in only a couple of hours. Afterwards I will be posting my thoughts on how these products will tighten our grip on the Galaxy here at DarthMac.com.
Live coverage from ArsTechnica will be available on their livecast here.
