Microsoft Zune HD slashes prices

Posted by Vincent On February - 2 - 2010

Lets face it, Zune HD really can’t compete with the iPod just like AMD is trying to beat Intel at the processor game. So what does AMD and Microsoft have in common to beat Apple and Intel? They both slashes prices! And AMD is already putting the hurt on Intel, which made Intel to reduce its prices on processors. Microsoft is taking the same approach with its Zune HD player; that is slash, slash and slash more prices.

Currently, you can get the 16GB Zune HD at Amazon for $190 (from $220) or the 32 GB version for about $250 (from $290). This is a bargain compare to the iPod. The lastest Zune ZD is sleek and beautiful as much as the iPod, and more features that are better than the iPod. So if you are sick of the trendy iPod, the Zune HD may be a nice option you can look at.  Here are some of the features found on the Zune HD:

  • Zune HD comes with a built-in HD Radio receiver so users can listen to higher-quality sound than traditional radio on the go. Users also will have access to the additional song and artist data broadcast by HD Radio stations as well as additional channels from their favorite stations multicasting in HD. If you don’t like the song playing on your station’s HD channel, switch to its HD2 or HD3 channels for additional programming.
  • The bright OLED touch screen interface allows users to flip through music, movies and other content with ease, and the 16:9 widescreen format display (480×272 resolution) offers a premium viewing experience on the go.
  • The HD-compatible output lets Zune HD customers playback supported HD video files from the device through a premium high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) audiovisual docking station (sold separately) direct to an HD TV in 720p.*
  • Zune HD will include a full-screen Internet browser optimized for multitouch functionality.
  • Zune HD is Wi-Fi enabled, allowing for instant streaming to the device from the more than 5 million-track Zune music store.
