Zune - Microsoft Killer or Next Apple Victim?

prophet asks: "Now that we have all seen the new Microsoft 'Zune', and the suits over at Microsoft have seen fit to inform us of a whole line of 'Zune' related hardware and software products, my real question is, will Microsoft be able to de-throne the ever growing iPod phenom? With the current confirmed 'Zune' prototype photos dispersed throughout the net, it is hard to see how Microsoft has thought that the current design of the 'Zune' is in fact enough in its current form for users to be pleased aesthetically, and at the same time impressed by ease of use. At the current moment, rumors are circulating of a redesign of the controls on Microsoft's part before a complete release. With the current aesthetical design of the Zune, will it appeal to the masses in the way the iPod did? More importantly, does it appeal to you?

Re:who wrote that title?

The term "Microsoft Killer" should refer to something that "kills" Microsoft, just like the "iPod killers" we hear so much about.

There've been some terrible titles as of late. Today I saw something from the "Pay what you get for" department. Someone loves to garble English.
