Zune Pricing
Zune Pricing!
Everyone is quite eager to know how the supposedly called "iPod killer" Zune will look like, how will it be priced, what features it would have, etc. I'm not sure whether the name "iPod Killer" can be given to this product right now. iPod has attained a cult status. It has become the de-facto for a mobile music player.
Many do not find Microsoft as fancy as Apple. Apprantely, Toshiba will be making the hardware for Zune. Wonder what happened to all the other vendors - Samsung, HP, Creative? Guess the too would join the band wagon once this thing kicks off.
However, I have been hearing that the price of Zune will be around $299 with a lot of freebies. We already knew the Zune was going to come in a triad of colors, but we didn't have much of any idea as to the price they were going to stick you for. Common sense would dictate it would be at or slightly below what the iPod is asking for their device -- but not above -- and if TWiCE is correct with their information, the Zune will run for an on-par $299. It has also been reported that Zune won't allow for music purchases on the go, which kind of flies in the face of that whole "connected entertainment" thing, as well as the idea of putting WiFi in a portable, so we're looking at it somewhat skeptically for the time being.
