&lt;p&gt;Every day I see more Zunes about (Chicago). &amp;nbsp;Last Summer every CTA bus and train had huge iPod ads on them. &amp;nbsp;A train with 10 cars would have 10 huge iPod ads... Apple must have bought out the entire season because you couldn't walk 1 block without seeing an iPod ad. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You guys should beat them to it this year. &amp;nbsp;I don't look forward to seeing the iPod ads again this year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://zuneinsider.com./aggbug.aspx?PostID=7759" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: What I Knew About NPD. . . </title><link>http://zuneinsider.com./archive/2007/05/01/what-i-learned-about-npd.aspx#7758</link><pubDate>Tue, 01 May 2007 13:32:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">5ce50d38-4fce-4760-b472-9d583d824b57:7758</guid><dc:creator>TheNumberDevil</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;... to bring entire catalog of South African Music to ZMP.

&lt;p&gt;I'm not sure of the grammar rule on that, it could very well be acceptable, it just drives me up a wall to read it like that.&lt;/p&gt;
