Last week we reported that Microsoft Zune revenue had fallen over $100 million USD year-on-year from 2007.
Microsoft has now spoken out about the numbers and says that the huge drop in revenue was "unexpected."
Zune Director of Marketing Adam Sohn, when asked what factors led to the decline, added:

*Cue sh*tstorm*
I love fanboys, because they get banned. =D
So do I, specially when it comes to Apple fanboys who want to "Applefy" everyone. When will they learn a product or a company is nothing to be worshiped about, at least not in this way
i find it funny that more 360 owners dont own a zune... Everyone dogs microsoft weather it be "windows sucks" or "the Zune sucks" or whatever. they Still make the 360 and i think that kinda sucks, i like windows and i love my zune... not a fan of my 360 (just to many problems with RROD and things). I guess no matter what you do in the market you just can't win!
Hmm... Maybe if they had some ads I'd know that the Zune is better then the iPod Classic... Cheaper too. I'll be looking for one of them next christmas. Even now for $250 CAD you get the 120GB Zune player and a speaker dock with video out or w/e from Futureshop, which is a much better deal then just a 120GB Classic. I have a 5.5G Video right now which is nice but the battery is going. I can replace it for like $5.75 off of DX but I also need a bigger HDD so...
My Zune recently broke (dropped it while the HDD was spinning) but I loved that thing. I bought a Zen to replace it thinking that it was a smart move since it was flash based, the same size as flash Zunes and like $30 less. Dear god that thing is ultimate crap.
I've used iPods but I think the Zune is a really nice bit of kit. MS should promote the Zune card more. Thats a cool feature. My friends and I are always battling over who can get the most plays from out favorite bands.
