The killing Zune hardware comes as Microsoft is reportedly building up a team in the same division to develop new media services allied with the Xbox.
Here’s from a Microsoft spokesman:
We’re absolutely committed to providing the best movies, music, and TV show experiences through Zune on Xbox, the PC, Windows Phone 7 and Zune devices. We’ll share more information about the evolution of the Zune entertainment service and Zune hardware as future plans develop.
