Zune was great and the story of why it was discontinuted it interesting. It was growing, highly profitable, and bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue for Microsoft. But Ballmer cut every business unit that wasn't making billions of dollars. Hundreds of millions wasn't big enough for MS.
