GET OUTTA THE WAY!

Posted 10-12-2007 at 07:53 PM by Mac Sirloin
I recently acquired a large scale MP3 player (both in size and memory) but I need a certain little program for it.

MusicMatch Jukebox is what you use when VLC or Windows Media player has completely gone over your head.
Not only is this ancient software part of what comes with this machine, but it's necessary.

Firstly, it's invasive, no matter how many windows you open, BAM! it's in front of them, so you have to move it aside or minimize it, not that it matters, because it just pops up again whenver you change the current window.

So let's say you're reading an MSN conversation, Syncing your MP3 player, and checking to see if the media player on IGN hasn't completely imploded while you load up a TF2 video. Problem is, you have to get rid of Musicmatch Portable media player EVERY TIME.

So you have two options, #1 is put up with this stupid bullshit over and over again, #2 is to close everything else while this program GRINDS ALONG as if it were in a computer powered by fossil fuels, yes its slow.

Secondly,the aforementioned slowness, this is beyond agonizing over Windows media player 10 crapping out on you, no, this thing is the definition of slowness.
Every song takes about 30 seconds to sync. So lets say you want to put like, 23 songs on it before you go out for some ill mannered cavorting.

Well, prepare to free up your night, , because that's 12:30 minutes that you have to wait while your friends stand around beating you aacross the face with Ipods and cellphones.

The third problem is the errors, this thing has an error for everything, and I mean everything.

ERROR!: Cannot play file, not WMA, Midi, MP3, WAV, MMO, PLS, CDA or M3U selected.

What!? It's Feel Good Inc. You dumbass!

ERROR!: An unkown device failure occured.

HOW?! I JUST PLUGGED IT IN!

Until it just becomes a free for all between the keyboard and your fist.

Now combine all of these errors with the fact that you CANNOT just copy and paste music onto your Mp3 player, no it REQUIRES that you use it.

I sick of You, Dell, Making half assed programs that are compltely unnecessary.
