I have to agree with thedemographic and cookingdoggy. There seems to be a void in actual user testimonials, product reviews, etc that don't border on outright stupidity. Most simultaneously bash the product and their composition skills. I sometimes openly weep at the state of our education system...

Anyway, I too would like to see more personal stories about the product, accessories and the actual usage of both, whether it be a review or a personal experience. In other words, welcome the social.

For example, I had a young lady send me a song while sitting in a Panera Bread via the Zune. This started a pleasant conversation not only about the product, but about sharing, social networking, etc. She had never heard of half the artists in my collection and vice versa. Even though she was likely 40+ years my junior, we found a common bond: The Zune and the music. It was two hours that crossed generational, musical and social boundaries.

I'd like to see more 'stories' in that light on here, not just a news board.

Ace, anyway I can help in that regard... just let me know.
