Tsk tsk tsk.

Okay... The things in Best Buy are called Gift Cards. The iTunes store also accepts credit cards and, if I remember correctly, will drop a song onto your AOL bill as well.

My point is not that points themselves are stupid, but if points are your only method of payment, that is indeed 100% stupid. Yeah it's great if you want to use points for Xbox Live or something similar, but you can't just buy a damned song. You have to buy points, then trade the points for a song.

Someone thought this was a good idea?

Way to close off the market even more.

The Zune is starting to remind me of that parody iPod video you've already seen; namely what would've happened had MS designed the iPod. We're finding out now. A great device with tons of potential being seriously crippled a little at a time.
