The Zune is here

| | Comments (0)
If you've not been paying attention lately, Microsoft has just launched the ZUNE, their answer to Apple's IPOD. The IPOD has just clebrated it's fifth borthday and it's going to be pretty hard for the ZUNE to make a big dent it's market monopoly. Apple has just signed a deal with several airlines to make recharge connections for your IPOD available in airline seats so you're videos don;t run out half way through the flight. While many of us are excited when we get on a plane with multichannel movies, soon it may be a case of purchasing the movie you want before you get onboard, or maybe you'll be able to purchace it onboard? Airlines have always been wary of playing films that have plane crashes in them, the 'only QANTAS has never crashed' lines from Rainman is edited out of the airline version, 'Passenger 57' isn't going to be shown. I wonder if a download store in an airport terminal would continue this longstanding tradition?
