Like ipod and you have nano, shuffle and so on...

They said they're will be 3 or so portable entertainment things. A full ipod like player (video and all) a nano like player ( small and light) and a portable xbox (psp like) All being under the Zune brand
Maybe Zune will come out with a Micro Zune like nano. MicroZune.com

A couple rumors have said it.

That would certainly match their successful "Xbox" theme.

What if Microsoft fooled us all?

What if...

By a complete flop, do you mean they throw a billion dollars of advertising at it for a couple of years? Or do you mean before Christmas?

If I'm not mistaken, MS/Bill Gates owns a nice amount of Apple stock? Why would they make a competitor with such conditions?

Ne'way, I'll never buy a capital product from MS, their OS is already junk enough, I'd hate to see an MP3 by them. O_o

Excellent question and one that I’ll reiterate.

Agreed. Vista and XP suck. explorer.exe keeps randomly restarting and i lose all my tray icons. Once you have a virus, trojen or anything horrid that is it. You are basically buggered unless you spent £50/year on Norton internet security. And no internet security suite is flawless. I have over 20 virus's on my laptop that norton detected and removed instantly (before it crashed my laptop first, even though i have 2GB ram and 1.8GHZ).

Very annoying..

Back on topic now, i am never going to buy a Zune unless it is better and thinner than an iPod Nano.

Hey, everyone.

I've been away from the boards for about a month (didja miss me? ) but I found this thread and, as usual, overspent.

Now I'm the proud (?) owner of:

ZuneClicks.com
StrictlyZune.com
ZunePolice.com
Zuneteenth.com
ConnectZune.com
ZuneMaven.com
ZuneHelps.com
TurboZune.com
EmoZune.com
ZuneGloom.com
Zunesters.com

Time will, as they say, tell.

But I'd love to hear opinions on any or all of these.

yeah, pretty worthless..

I base this on the ipod (an actual product with a proven track record)

ipodclicks.com -----> available

connectipod.com ---> available

ipodhelps.com ------> available
turboipod.com ------> available

What possessed you to even consider buying this stuff?? You must have a game plan when you go into business (which buying a domain represents albeit in a small way) as to what your exit strategy is.. With those names you couldnt even flip (imho) to another domainer at wholesale..

Here's something to think about... Suppose "zune" is indeed the final name for this thing and ms decides to get aggressive regarding TM violators.

If I were a shrewd attorney, I'd look for the honeypot of potential TM violators (aka this thread). There are probably 200+ zune names in the posts listed here (and I'm sure more will be added after this post), low hanging fruit for a crafty TM lawyer.

I know that as you find that "great name" you want to shout it from the rooftops; however, perhaps due to the litigious nature of ms it may be more prudent to show a bit more discretion and stealth.

Just a word of caution.

Posting your domain name in this thread could be viewed as self incrimination.

This could be a teaser for Zune posted at YouTube. It looks cooler than any advertising I’ve ever seen come out of Redmond.
