Microsoft improves Zune with 10 DRM-free MP3 tracks November 20, 2008 [General] | By Edward J. R. Microsoft never was serious about Windows Mobile being "also for consumers, not jut for enterprise" becase it was not offering Zune music service in Windows Mobile but only with Microsoft's Zune players. Since there is a possibility (some Microsoft managers hinted at it) that Zune service will be included in Windows Mobile next year, here are some good news about it that further prove that this music service is better than iTunes: Zune, Microsoft Corp.’s digital music and entertainment service, today announced landmark agreements with major and independent music labels to bring significant new value to the subscription music model. The Zune Pass subscription service currently gives consumers on-demand access to millions of tracks for $14.99 per month. Starting today subscribers will also get to select 10 tracks per month to keep and add them to their permanent collection (an estimated $10 value). Zune Pass subscribers will have the added benefit of retaining digital rights management (DRM)-free MP3 tracks from Sony BMG and UMG, in addition to MP3 tracks from EMI Music, Warner Music Group and a large portion of the independent music labels. With the addition of tracks from UMG and Sony BMG, Zune will soon offer over 90 percent of its music in the MP3 format. To learn more, visit original source of this story about Zune Pass extension.
