Hmmm thats an optimistic Call for the Giant Microsoft. The question is has the device lived up to its hype?

Just an Ipod rip off.

That is an overly optimistic forecast, but what else are they to say? They'll be lucky if they are even still selling them next summer.

I will use their formula and make my own prediction: I will sell one million domain names by the end of June 2007, despite never having sold one.

See? We can all play Microsoft's game.

Lol, everyone can play that game, but I guess Microsoft already did sold at least one Zune lol.

I quite like Zune overall; it seems much better to me than iPod. Of course, I know Microsoft only did Zune, just to earn a few millions extra ... but still, Zune looks good to me ... can't wait till it releases in Belgium

Although that might be true, i dont see how many people can want or need it? Most nearly everyone i know owns some form of an ipod. And if they dont own that, then they own nothing. So whats the big fuss about the zune?

I my country, everybody wants to get and Ipod, Ipod is really popular, and Nobody knows about zune O.o

I dont like Ipod, is too difficult to search a song, and is not possible to shre your tracks.

Lets not start an IPod/Zune war. The Zune is Microsoft's bid at a portion of Apple's dominance. Just 1% of the share Apple holds would give the average person enough money to live for the rest of their lives in complete and utter luxury. That 1% would simply be people who buy the product because it says "Microsoft", and 50% of that would be people who bought it and now can not return it.
