Update: the official word on project Zune HD. There is a lot of talk online about the “coming” Microsoft Zune HD. Whereas Microsoft has not confirmed a thing, the evidence coming in is pretty overwhelming. We’ve set up a site to track information about this product over at ZuneLuv.com/zunehd. We’ve been very critical of Microsoft…Read More »
ZuneHD? My Thoughts On The Rumors
Disclosure: I’m a Microsoft Digital Media MVP and under NDA with Microsoft under several issues. I, however, know nothing from Microsoft about any “Zune HD” project. When Engadget broke the “Zune HD” story, I was curious. I did my quick due diligence on rumor articles of this sort and found ZuneHD.com to be open for…Read More »
Zune.net Podcast Directory Goes Web Based … Fascinating
So, quietly, the Zune.net Podcast Directory went web based (or at least has a web-based option). I wish I could tell you I got this content through some executive briefing that gives me hope for the future but … I read about this change in the Zune Insider as a sub-point of content (relating to…Read More »
Your Social – Or Mine – Or Zuck’s (George’s)?
So, … Google has Friend Connect to bring us all together. Twitter has joined forces with them so we know this is going to be something big.

First, obviously, my scorecard on last year’s predictions. One major podcast network goes down in flames.

Boy that should get some attention … I typically place the day to day stuff about the Zune over at ZuneLuv.com but today’s news deserves comment here as well (don’t worry, we wrote about this over there too). As reported at Cnet and explained at the Zune Insider, Microsoft added something very cool to the…Read More »
Which Is “Better” – Mac or PC In Video Editing?
My friend Mike attempts to answer the question – “Which is better, Mac or PC?” (related to video editing at least). Since I purchased a new MacBook Pro yesterday, I thought I’d tell you why: There is a “secret” angle to all this that most people forget. Actually, it ain’t much of a secret at…Read More »
What The “Spotlight Turns To Notebooks” Event Means To New Media
Like many, I’ve been watching the livebloggers during Apple’s “Spotlight Turns To Notebooks” event. Currently I’m “watching” Engadget and Ars Technica (for those of you playing along at home). As always, my comments on what this all “means” in the New Media space: First, we start with the obligatory Apple is doing extremely well comment….Read More »
Today’s Starz On Netflix Announcement Is Big
As reported, people who use the Netflix streaming service, can now get movies from Starz (the cable movie channel). Right now, out of the box, you can stream movies like Spider Man 3, Enchanted, and Dan in Real Life. Earlier I reported on a product called PlayOn that let’s you stream Hulu.com and some other…Read More »
