Microsoft's Dangerous About-Face
,----[ Quote ]
| The talk of the day is that Microsoft's upcoming Zune music player and
| a related music service will be proprietary, just like Apple'siPod-iTunes
| combo. That's the word from a slew of sources I've spoken with yesterday
| and today. In other words, DRM-protected songs purchased from
| Microsoft's new music service won't play on devices other than the Zune,
| and the Zune won't play songs from other services.
