New here? I love the word “trounces”. I so rarely get to use it in a sentence. Since June, Microsoft’s retail partners have been working to sell those first million Zunes to consumers at fire sale prices as low as $80. That’s at or even below cost. This would explain why it’s one of the top selling on amazon right now. Microsoft is dumping the Zune on the market, figuring because it’s cheap enough people will settle for mediocre, like they did Windows. Wow what an article/review.
I love the comments below. Why does MS bother doing this at all? Screwing their partners with PlayFerShure, and taking on the iPod? You know in the end, the sad thing is they may win. With unlimited revenue guaranteed by their continued monopoly, they can afford to waste millions and millions on this till they catch up or flood the market with Zunes. I’m sure they’ll eventually catch up with hardware parity and software, and continue to lose money till then.
I think thats just a disgusting way to win a market. “I love the word “trounces”.
