No, that's exactly my point - Microsoft is trying to copy the iPod, making exactly what you said: a closed consumer device. Part of that is a good thing: a tightly controlled end to end consumer experience free from the idiocy of third-party ideas about quality. But if Microsoft wants to make strides, they can't copy the iPod completely - they need to incorporate features that the iPod lacks.
