In 2005, a friend from Microsoft, who was then charting the progress of MSN Music and the software giant's other Apple-competitive products in the marketplace, passed along a secret: Microsoft was developing its own iPod killer in-house. There was no guarantee that the company would actually sell the device he said; indeed, at the time he figured the design would just be used as a proof of concept to show Microsoft's hardware partners how a good iPod competitor should look and feel. But he had a question for me: Were Microsoft to make such a device--and, again, absolutely no decision had been made along those lines--what would I expect of it?

Read the review here.

Yes. But, this is Microsoft's first portable media player ne. We'll see how it evolves over the time. But it might be too late for them, because iPod will be far ahead of it by the time.

Your music library in Zune

Your music library looks just like it does in Media Player 11, with nifty stacks of albums and fast performance even with huge libraries.

    But i love creative zens.They r the best for me even they r not popular as ipods.
    u know how powerful the sound from that zens r?Creative warns customers not to hear music frm zen with its original microphones with volume turned to max,coz that'll make you dumb in a few days!!!i tried once never felt anything around me.U want to get it high & high.The sound was sooooo great like a big blue eyed girl..

    another competitor for apple Ipod.......... :yes:

    Yes, yes. But I don't think Microsoft's designs are better than Apples. Feature wise, they maybe identical, but Applie products are so beautiful. :yes: :yes:
