Microsoft opens Zune Pass to Great Britain for those few Zune users who smuggled a Zune player into the country where you cannot actually buy them officially. Zune players are limited to US and Canada and now Brits can use the Zune software to play Zune music. Well sorta. You gotta make some changes to your system to trick the software into thinking you are in the US. And you cannot stream musci probably because of music rights issues still but you can pay for those services now with your british credit card and Microsoft Points I suppose.
Microsoft allows brits to access zune pass – The Inquirer
STILL ASPIRING MUSIC MOGOL Microsoft is bringing its all you can eat music service, Zune Pass, to the UK.
The service, which is a rival to Apple’s Itunes and Amazon’s MP3 store, has until now been limited, like its Zune music player, to the US. Now users here in Blighty are able to sign up for the service, which promises “unlimited access to music” for a fixed monthly fee.

This guy points out that in order to get full use of the new Windows Phone 7 devices you will need to install Zune software on your PC which does limit the users who can take full effect of the device. Microsoft has been slow if even non responsive to make Zune software available on Linux based PC’s and there are quite a few of those plus of course Mac users who cannot install Zune software either but I don’t think they make a mistake by using Zune software on the Windows 7 Phone although they should certainly consider opening things up more for users of other software. For those who do have a Windows PC they will experience the full power of the Microsoft Suite as they should for using the complete package. in addition I would expect it to work nicely with my Xbox and other Microsoft services as well.
That a proprietary software maker likes its own software makes perfect sense and if Microsoft knows they will have more of their phone users using their own OS that what better way to open up more users to Zune? Apple forces us to use iTunes for sync on the iPod and has been reluctant to open up to Linux users as well. Any shock in all of this?
Why Zune software could make Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 strategy a non-starter – Computerworld Blogs
Microsoft yesterday revealed details about the features and strategy for Windows Phone 7 — and if this is the core of what’s Microsoft got, it may have difficulty competing against the iPhone and Android phones. When one of the core pieces of your mobile strategy is relying on the rarely used PC Zune software, there may be trouble ahead

Microsoft has two new apps for the Zune HD in a promising sign they are still offering updates for the much maligned mp3 player from Microsoft. Available now are the Microsoft Money App and a new game called Animalgrams which seems geared to very young kids. I’m unsure how many of those are using a Zune HD but maybe a few of us want to let the kids play with our latest gadget.
I’m not a user of Microsoft money so i will have to default to a review from other Zune users but suffice it to say it helps manage your money using your Microsoft device and software.
Two new Zune HD apps: MSN Money, and Animalgrams – LiveSide.net
Even though the Zune HD app upgrade path to Windows Phone 7 is a dead end, it’s nice to see a couple of new apps appear ready for download to Zune HDs this week.
The first, following in the footsteps of MSN Weather, is MSN Money. Our friend Travis at Zunespring.com has a nice review of the new app, which features stocks information, a Currencies page including a Currency converter, Watchlists, and Articles:

Is there a Zune tablet on the way? No! Microsoft is making some noise over their plans for a tablet computer which was mentioned as an urgency by Steve (Looking for a new job yet?) Ballmer but there is no Microsoft tablet in the future. If anything they will allow soe hardware vendor to cram Windows 7 into tablet hardware but the idea of a Microsoft zune tablet are way ahead of the game.
I would love to see Microsot make a Zune music tablet but i doubt we’ll ever even see a new Zune device. How sad is is that they spent billions to make the Zune and now we are stuck with basically the Zune HD as the only player they offer. Is Zune dead? No not yet but the signs of life are weak. lets hope in their bid to reorganize after the KIN phones mistake they will pump more into the Zune and we might even see a Zune tablet coming Zune.
Analyst’s View: Microsoft’s Tablet is Coming! Well, Not Really | Tim Gideon | PCMag.com
Here’s a secret: in the world of online media, sometimes writers (like me) need to stretch a few sentences into a story, even if, well, there isn’t much of a story. Like it or not, it’s our job. Here are the Ballmer quotes from yesterday’s Microsoft financial analysts meeting that we, the media, are basing the hype and promise of a Microsoft tablet on:
“They’ll be shipping as soon as they are ready. And it is job one urgency. No one is sleeping at the switch.”
Sounds promising! In fact, it sounds like a promise. So, Microsoft is finally making a tablet – will it be a Zune-family piece of hardware? Not so fast.
“Just like we had to make things happen on netbooks, we’ve got to make things happen with Windows 7 on slates. And we are in the process of doing that as we speak. We’re working with our hardware partners, we’re tuning Windows 7 to new slate hardware designs that they’re bringing them to market.”
Hmm. So Microsoft is basically just shipping Windows 7 and having “hardware partners” make the tablet. Not only will this device not be a Zune, but it seems like there will be several iterations. This sounds an awful lot like the way Microsoft develops operating systems for PCs and then lets hardware vendors build the machines. In other words, it’s business as usual.
