Well done MS
"The release of Urge and the new media software have been
somewhat overshadowed, given that during the year since
Microsoft announced its plans, it has decided to offer its own
Zune player and companion subscription service."

And ZDNet was promoting it from the first press release well
over a year ago.

You couldn't write a comedy as good as this, good work MS;-)
