This is an interesting rumour. Will it save the Zune. No, it’s still going to flounder against the all mighty iPod.

Flounder is what Apple will do when the public has a choice like the Zune. I am switching after having two of our iPods go “dark” on us (18 and 22 months). I refuse to support Apple while they continue to engineer a product with such a short life span.

It was great while it lasted (less than two years). My cost per song from iTunes is about $2.22 each when you factor in having to buy a new iPod every 20+ months.

The use of Microsoft Points allows for an economy where micro-transactions make some sense.
I send you a song, that song gets tagged with my referral-ID (ZuneTag maybe), and later if you buy the song from Marketplace, I get a Microsoft Point or two.
I doubt it’s a first-generation Zune feature… but it just might surface as the concept evolves.
Cool!

I think this will be a good model IF the ratio is good. Who wants to sell 50 songs for Microsoft and get one free song? Even 20 is pushing it. The details is what is going to make this thing fly or die.

Fantastic idea. This is truly brilliant. If this is a rumor, Microsoft should adopt the idea. Not only will kids share their songs, but I bet soon they will be able to sell their original content. Imagine if you have homemade videos clips or your own garage band songs loaded onto your zune. What if you can tag it with a cost per download..then everytime someone listens and decides to download your stuff, you get paid. Huge potential.

that would be cool i guess but i probably wouldnt do it very much, and i wonder if you have to buy the song from the market place to get the credit or if you can just get the song from a cd and share it for points

That’s an interesting rumor because Amie Street http://www.amiestreet.com already does this. I am a founder of Amie Street, and I am flattered that Microsoft would think that our idea of incentivizing members to share and recommend songs is so smart that they would borrow it. I wish they would have asked :), but I’m flattered none the less.

get your friends to “zunein” to the music your listening too. hmm

This idea came up in 2004. Wonder if it will work this time.

When I first started visiting web sites I was excited by the potential of the internet as a resource and was very disappointed initially. You have restored my enthusiasm and I thank you for your efforts to share your insights and help the world become a better place.

Best content I ever seen. Huge amounts of live feeds, high payouts. Realy cool.
