That video is classic. What Microsoft wanted as a chance to showcase their new Zune turned into more Apple press. Its no wonder they hate Apple so much...
Like it matters - try lowering by $100 and they might, i said might, sell a few ....
Guy at the local gamestop store had their zunes displayed for 9 months and sold 1 unit ..... as you know gamestop stopped handling the zune - manager told me a month later they were still sitting in the backroom ..... don't know what finally happened after that but 9 months on one sale - ouch

In other news, Apple PLEASE copy the new Zune subscription model: Unlimited music for $15, keep 10 songs per month. It's pretty brilliant!
