Now that the software giant has its own player/music service in the works, the project appears to be moving forward both quickly and smartly. A recent filing with the FCC shows that Mr. Softie is backing its Zune player with both a strong partner and innovative features. It's telling that the Zune details were revealed in an FCC filing submitted by Toshiba. BullMarket.com looked at the following topics, among others: -- What can new filings with the FCC tell investors about Zune? -- What hurdles must Microsoft overcome in order for the Zune to become a hit? -- Will Zune or SanDisk's new Sansa line seriously challenge Apple's iPod? -- How does Zune fit into Microsoft's larger strategy right now? -- How might Zune one day compete with portable gaming platforms from Sony and Nintendo? ======================================================== jbn3d
