Answer 1

Well, Apple as pretty much dominated the MP3 market. The Zune cant catch up to the apple momentum. The Zune market place was in no-way a match to itunes. Itunes is massive. The Zune is pretty clunky and less stable, as is most windows stuff. I had a Zune but I found that I used my ipods more and more becuase the Zune was annoying. If you want one, wait a bit and by it when it starts going bye bye. You'll get a good deal on the clearence. The Zune is a decent device. It can play a deverse selection of formats and so if you can get one cheap it'll be worth the money. But if it brakes or the battery dies then I wouldn't expect it to be fixed.

I dont think Windows will give up though. Im sure they'll try again and remarket a new device. I really hope then can come up with a better name. I was never a big perponent of the name - Zune, "what the heck does that mean?" If it does have a meaning, then I think Windows dug to deep to find it.
