Microsoft Turns To Late Night Urban Spam To Save Zune

By Piers Fawkes on February 26, 2007

How to win friends and influence them: Last Saturday Night, Microsoft had the clever idea of parking a car with a “competition grade stereo system” in the Lower East Side and blast out a tune to bar goers and the residents of the neighborhood. It was 3am.

A local resident filmed the above video and has set up a complaint website. In an open letter to Microsoft he says:

“Microsoft, we personally feel that this obnoxious stunt makes you irrevocably responsible in providing restitution to all residents in the immediate vicinity.”

WAKE UP MICROSOFT
