Good to see that someone has beaten some sense into the marketing trolls at
MS finally.

It was a mistake to position the Zune at the same price point as the iPod.
You don't take on the 8000 lb, firmly entrenched gorilla with only an FM
radio and the undefined and untested "social" to differentiate your product.
The "social" was a mega-flop, so at least they'll compete directly with
something near and dear to Apple's heart: profit margins.
