New Zune Models for Fall ‘08


September 8th, 2008


By GadgetManiac

Microsoft adds 2 new models to their Zune family of MP3 players. The new Zune 120 GB player sells for $249.99, and the 16 GB model for $199.00.

Also MSFT has tweaked the device’s software to allow users to download songs from wireless hot spots, buy music heard on FM radio stations, as well as a music recommendation service, with a few new games thrown in.

Sounds like a step in the right direction and should help Zune move up from its 4% market share, although some grumps are unimpressed, see here: Zune Gets New Features That Won’t Help Sell Zunes.
