Microsoft's Zune doesn't Play for Sure ;-)
Sunday, Sep 17 2006, 17:26 TechnologyThe Zune launch came and went, and I really did not pay much attention to it
I own an iPod, all my music is ripped off the CDs I bought, or freely downloaded from Apple's iTunes (every week there is a freebie download promo) so I really did not care for what microsoft had released.
Well my friends, it appears that microsoft's iPod killer doesn't even play files from Napster 2.0, Yahoo, and Real (among other online music and video stores) that are "protected" by Microsoft's play for sure DRM. The Zune could have been something that had the potential to challenge the iPod, but Microsoft shot themselves in the foot.
Here's some more reading for you:
