Thanks to Devin Coldewey we have a pretty clear video about one of Zune’s 3.0 features. The Wireless Marketplace is a good tool for getting yourself some music but it could surely be improved. By getting I mean of course purchasing. What did you think this is? Napster?
Audiobooks, games and a new clock are all included in the new software. The ability of sharing new tracks with friends has been improved. Do you ever do that? Do you have a Zune? Happy with it? As you can see I am really trying to cut Microsoft some slack today. After all I do need a new clock!

I wondered where the catch is from the minute I saw free WiFi at McDonald’s. At first it sounded awfully familiar. It’s like I’ve seen the same scenario with slightly different characters. It was AT&T instead of Microsoft to offer free WiFi in Starbucks instead of McDonald’s for iPhone instead of Zune users. But AT&T wanted to prove they can’t do a thing right from the beginning and played around with free WiFi’s switch for a couple of days.
Is Microsoft going to do the same? I mean I understand its effort to keep its 2.5% share of the MP3 players’ market happy. And with such a move they’re guaranteed to get at least a 0.01% more of that market. Imagine chewing on a burger and enjoying a vanilla shake while downloading Zune 3.0, which by the way is out, via free Mickey D’s WiFi on your newest Zune player. Doesn’t that sound like heaven? It does if you haven’t seen Super Size Me and you don’t know anything about Microsoft.
Oh, and the Zune doesn’t have a web browser right? Well you will be able to get a few more songs instead of surfing the web. Nice one Microsoft!
