The Zune doesn't come with a charger, so it's not 100% certain that the box was opened. One possibility not mentioned is that the Zune software picked up the girl's dad's "collection" of pictures when it scanned the hard drive for media after the initial install.

I never thought of that ... a lot of software will just scan the harddrive for whatever it can find that's supported so it could have done that.

Guess this shows that people should only really pass on technology to their children when they know what it does.

What is likely the case is that the Zune that was purchased was actually a returned item that Walmart turned around and sold as new. The previous owner could have put whatever s/he wanted on it and Walmart returns would never have bothered to check what was on the HD.

I think the family would have more to worry about if it was indeed "her daddies collection"..

The **** was a 5 man orgy

And thus, the microsoft zune has won the dap wars.

 

[averydonovan]

A DAP loaded with, uh, adult content (can't say **** here) is only okay if the buyer or recipient of the device is an adult, and the preloaded content matches their taste

I bet the parents sure had some explaining to do about that preloaded content though

But all kidding aside, due to the risk of that stuff happening, retailers definitely need to be more careful about what they repackage and resell, and they need to clearly mark such items as being previously opened. For DAPs and storage devices like memory cards and USB thumb drives, they really should just find a way to format them before resale, otherwise they're going to end up with more incidents like this. I would be a bit shocked and appalled if I purchased a DAP and found adult material on it. I want to choose my own to put on there and not be subjected to someone else's tastes or lack thereof.

Talk about preloaded with apps.

Worried about what your kids might see on the internet?

By them a new Microsoft Zune, and skip the middleman!

Hooray Zune!

And they say Bill Gates doesn't have a sense of humor...

I'd bet there's a nearly 80% chance of this. The Zune can be a bit over-zealous in its search for media the first time it connects to your machine... I found my entire photos folder uploaded before I had the chance to tell it not to.

Lucky for me, my photos folder contains only pictures of vacations and friends acting like idiots. Clothed idiots.

Haha, ignored the engadget article earlier on. But they always add something funny

Welcome to the social indeed.

So parents, format your children's DAPs before use. Trust Fox/North American news to show the actual device with the actual **** actually being displayed in what appear to be the mother's hands. Have they no scruples? But those orange nails, yikes.
