Microsoft confirms no Copyright Cop on Zune
section: microsoft, for your questions: KezNews forum, 8.5.2008
We have seen some chatter in the blogosphere over the last 24 hours around a couple of posts speculating about what Zune may or may not do in terms of putting content filtering features directly into the Zune family of devices in future releases.
We know you guys are following this discussion closely, and wanted to be absolutely clear on this issue:
We have no plans or commitments to implement any new type of content filtering in the Zune devices as part of our content distribution deal with NBC.
We think some folks in the industry were expressing hopes for how the entire industry, not just Microsoft, would come to look at content distribution, and some speculation has ensued. Again, no plans are in place toward this end.
I hope this clears up any confusion on the topic, and that you can now go back to enjoying the spring update :)

nbc left itunes because they were angry over not being able to charge over $1.99 an
episode for their tv shows, i really don't think they're going to make more money on the
zune, seeing as how hardly anybody has a zune.
nbc's ceo is on crack, their
network is terrible and their shows stink, and some apple diehards used this as a chance
to spread some fud over the zune. (which is a good device)
