Sharable Music Streams to the Zune of Microsoft?
September 15, 2006
So Microsoft is doing something more open than Apple (is this a first?). As per a New York Times article, they will include wireless technology to allow Zune owners to share their favorite songs and playlists with one another easily.
“With Zune, we are not simply delivering a portable device,” said J Allard, vice president for design and development at Microsoft. “We are introducing a new platform that helps bring artists closer to their audiences and helps people find new music and develop new social connections.”
It's still unclear how exactly it will play out, but I think this is actually a very good thing from a user perspective. Instead of having to pass the headphones, you can just share the song.
