Yep, Billy Mays will be promoting the Zune.

Maybe the Zune will actually sale this time, it seems like Microsoft is getting serious about the Zune.

I'm pretty sure Zune sold just fine before. I bought one. It's the better product.

My Ipod is on its last legs.  If the Zune HD's look any good I might get one.

I liked my Zune a lot, but the iPod Touch & iPhone are in a completely different class altogether and the two really should not be directly compared. I'm interested to see more about the Zune HD.

J Allard should sell it. A Billy Mays ad would just turn me off from buying it.

ugh. who else would love to punch billy mays in the face?!!? Seriously, one fat sucker punch in the nose would make me the happiest man alive!


I really like that show on discovery channel though!!! Its funny as shit. 

Also, this is pretty ingenious. And woah, Billy Mays is moving up to the big leagues. 

How funny would it be if he hosted MS's press conference at E3?!!?!

Agreed, Zune is easily the better of the two major mp3 players.

Everyone thinks Billy Mays is a goon right?  I mean you all like him in an ironic way right?  That's the way I view the guy.   I just hope no one is really sold on things by him.

I don't know if anything seen by human eyes should have that much WIN and FAIL mixing together on one stage, with one man as the focal point.

Billy Mays doesn't make Oxy Clean though.  He's just a spokesman.

Isn't that what we're talking about though.  I know he doesn't make what he sells.   I think everyone knows that.

Oh well!  Off to buy some Mighty Mend-it!

I got my iPhone for zero (yes zero) yen.  It's free here in Japan, and the monthly charge is 20-60 dollars a month depending if you want 250MB - Unlimited DL limit over WiFi.

Tell me if I can get a Zune for cheaper, and it contains a much better valued investment.

@KaosAngel: In the end, it doesn't matter, because you are still feeding money to an evil corporation.  Not just any evil corporation, mind you...but an evil corporation that believes in everything being proprietary.  Ewwww....

1. thats in japan your still paying a monthly fee based upon what you want.
2.iphone in america your pretty much required to have a service provider aren't you? so your paying for the iphone unless you sign up for a 2-3 year contract that if you break it could mean 200 dollar+ fee's and still paying a monthly fee.
Ipod touch is a better product then the iphone, Most people don't need an iphone they don't need half the stuff the iphone is capable of. i for one would never purchase a zune phone, iphone or any thing like it i want a phone that lets me do one simple thing...Make and receive phone calls.

The Zune 80 is better then the iPod Classic, but the iPod Nanos are better then the flash Zunes.
The touch/iphone haven't had any competition... until now, with the Zune HD.

Now that that's out of the way... isn't Billy Mays that dude from Oxyclean?

I was hoping that Billy Mays would lose his voice, I hate watching his commercials. It is bad enough that ESPN has him in one of their commercials.

If anyone can convince me to finally replace my 3rd generation iPod from 2003 that doesn't have pictures or video and just plays music, it'd be Billy Mays.

Every time I'm watching TV with the Girl, and Billy Mays pops up on the screen, she always asks "Why is he screaming?"

That said, his ESPN.com commercial was pretty hilarious.
