The rumors involving plans to release a second generation Zune (with codenames like Scorpio and Draco) have been making their way around the Web since the beginning of the year. A Microsoft representative has commented on the approaches that will be taken to expand on their digital audio player. Additional styles sizes and price points are being considered, indicating that Microsoft is not content with their current share provided by the sole Zune model. Support for features such as video and podcasting are being built to match the offers supplied by competing players, but differentiating features (notably the Zune’s characteristic wireless features) will still retain focus. Reassurance as also given that the Zune will move to overseas markets in time, with adapted qualities to suit it.
We remain speculating on the details of Microsoft’s plans, and no specific dates have been announced yet, but an update can be expected to take place before the end of the year.
