You must have heard about Microsoft’s new portable media player Zune. If you hadn’t, now you did. It is no big deal, just a portable media player set to compete with iPod with its own DRM. Lots of stuff has been written about it from how it lets friends sharing music wirelessly to the social community that Microsoft is trying to build around the product, the deal Microsoft made with Universal Music Group and how some people had problems installing the Zune software.
Among all the news, the thing that grabbed my attention was this post, which pointed at the installation error screen of the Zune software. Granted, an installation error situation is a bad situation which probably puts a bad gesture on one’s face but would you scream (or do whatever that girl is doing) like this? I read different interpretations of this image. Is it orgasmic, does it show three people playing roll over on grass, is the girl that looks like in great pain hurt badly? I don’t know. Does this supposed to make someone feel better during an installation error? I don’t know. But what I know is that this is a bad choice of image. Actually, in my book, the decision to use this image is as bad as choosing brown color for a portable player that is supposed to be sexy and cool.
