Elon Musk shared a poster about Zune Launch and its worth to see!

As we all know that Zune is probably dead now and for those who don’t know what is Zune, we have got you covered. According to Wikipedia

Zune was a line of digital media products and services marketed by Microsoft. Started in 2006, Zune consisted of a line of portable media players, digital media player software for Windows PCs, a music subscription service known as a “Zune Music Pass”, music and video streaming services for the Xbox 360 game console via the Zune Software, music, TV and movie sales, and desktop sync software for Windows Phone. Zune was also the provider of music streaming for United Airlines in-flight, after a partnership in 2010.

The Zune hardware players were discontinued in October 2011. In June 2012, Microsoft announced plans to discontinue all “Zune” products, and instead, Microsoft would distribute its digital media content and services under the Xbox Music and Xbox Video names, available on their line of products, including Windows 8 PCs and tablets, Xbox 360 game console, and Windows Phone smartphones. The www.zune.net domain now redirects to Xbox’s website, but the software retained the Zune name. The Windows Phone App succeeded Zune Software as the desktop sync service for Windows Phone 8, as part of Microsoft’s discontinuation of the Zune brand. However, Zune Software must still be used for Windows Phone 7 desktop sync and is still available to download from the Windows Phone website for all Windows Phone 7 devices. In November 2015, Microsoft retired the Zune music download and streaming service. The remaining Zune subscribers were switched over to Microsoft’s Groove Music platform, whose subscription services closed on December 31, 2017.

 

Now Elon Musk has shared a picture of a guy who looks like Bill Gates, and who is pointing at the stages of covid 19. And in the image, it shows we are at the stage of Vaccine rollout and the next phase is Zune relaunch.
