A new Zune TV Commercial is on air since yesterday. A large community of many Zunes in the dark. One of them sends to his friend 'MIMS This is why I rock' track through Wifi which spreads like a virus among all them. Some listen to FM radio stations and play videos. Its the Social ZuneWorld. Watch the video below. EDIT: More details about the spot. Its name is Zunescape...
Via ZuneInsider : You'll be able to catch the spot on channels like MTV, VHI, BET, and of course Adult Swim. And you can see the spot throughout the NBA playoffs and finals, and the season finales like Heroes, Grey's Anatomy, The Office, Lost, and Family Guy in top markets.
I could say the spot is nothing impressive, just good. It shows the basic features of Zune, music, videos, photos and of course the Wifi. At least the track is very close to the aggressive attitude I personally prefer!
EDIT1: Microsoft MIMS Blog (unofficial blog) says: Zune Marketing does a good job lengthening the ride of Mims' breakout single with a twist by adding a little rock to "This Is Why I'm Hot" with help from Purple Popcorn. This is what I would call Purple Popcorn's television debut on this remix to "This Is Why I Rock".
