Microsoft’s Zune is Official
Microsoft finally officially announces their Zune Mp3 Player. You can view the press release here. Basically, the Zune is a 30 gb mp3 player that has FM Radio, a 3 inch QVGA screen, and music, video, and picture playback. The Zune plays AAC, MP3, and WMA formats.
You can share files via Zune to Zune sharing, but a shared file can only be listened to for three times over a three day period, before you have to purchase it on the Zune Marketplace. There’s also a Zune Pass subscription, which allows you unlimited access to music and other media in the Zune Marketplace (like Napster), but no word on the monthly price for that, yet. The Zune comes in black, white, and brown, but Microsoft won’t announce the launch day (”the holiday season”) or a price.

well i dont noe about all of u but i hav the 4th generation iPod 20GB. i was looking at the Zune on wilipedia.org and it showed a size comparason. well the zune IZ a lil bit thicker. about the same amount that my iPod is compared 2 the new 30GB ipod Videos. and it is a littel longer too. my ipod i find 2 fit well in my hand and it doesnt look to bulky either. im selling my ipod tu buy the Black Zune though so it wont be as much of a transititon for me as it will for others,.
