Amid the pirated booty is a Theremin, an electronic instrument that dates back to the '20s, and a Microsoft Zune (note: it looks more like an iPod Nano onscreen, but I'll stick with the script).

I've always been an iPod sort of girl, but when a friend of mine whipped out his Zune at a recent barbecue, I felt a twinge of jealousy. A 3.2-inch screen? Wireless syncing? Awesome wallpapers?

Each show is said to be 160 Microsoft Points per episode (approximately Read more
GameStop has announced that it will stop carrying Microsoft's Zune because of shabby sales — a blow to the heart of the device that was hoped would be a worthy opponent to Apple's iPod. I feel a tiny bit for the little guy, who's an underdog fighting the good fight of consumer competition.
