Heavily Discounted Zune Outpacing iPod Sales
firegate writes "Yahoo Tech is reporting that the Microsoft Zune, having been heavily discounted for the holiday season, 'is currently Amazon's top-selling music player, beating out the new iPod Nano and the 80GB iPod on the 'Bestsellers in Electronics' list.' An Associated Press report even indicates that the Zune's newfound popularity has left it in short supply, sold out in many locations. Is this a sign that a true competitor, from Microsoft no less, has finally broken into the Apple-dominated MP3 player market? And will this spell more success for Windows-media based music subscription services like Napster?"
A lot of losers vote Republican too. It doesn't mean anything other than confirm that people are stupider than you could ever imagine. I've only ever seen one person in my life with a Zune in the wild and it was like seeing a "Kick Me Hard" sign on his back. What a chump.
Please learn to spell "its".
