Opening Zune Sales Flaccid

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the meager-beginnings dept.

An anonymous reader writes "As 'Black Friday' approaches and consumers line up for the Playstation 3 it looks like Zune has become an afterthought. Despite months of hype, opening Zune sales are only so-so. While Zune did reach the top 10 on Amazon's Top 25 list for electronic product sales on its first day, it quickly fell below the top 15 and continues to drop. Six separate iPod models now outsell it as well as SanDisk's e250 player. In-store sales are not much better."

    It's brown and it comes from Microsoft. Do I really need to say anything else?

    For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
