I originally wanted to title this article "Zune is iPod envy incarnate" but, after reading another article which explored the iPod envy angle, I decided to take a different tack.

Zune a brown elephant?

I must confess to having a good chuckle at a blog article criticising Microsoft's Zune strategy on the Forbes site by David M Ewalt. The article does indeed raise some important defects in Microsoft's strategy. The good news for Microsoft is that most of them can be fixed. The bad news is that one key problem cannot.
