Although it was announced as early as September 8, the Zune 3.0 upgrade was made available for download only today, September 16.
Last week, Robert J. Bach, President, Entertainment & Devices Division indicated that the focus with the evolution from version 2.0 to 3.0 was not the hardware, the Zune device itself, but the software and service built around it. Brian Seitz, group marketing manager for Zune, confirmed that.
According to Seitz, the close similitude between the Zune 2.0 and Zune 3.0 devices is due to the fact that Microsoft is focused on building software for a hardware platform which can be overlooked by innovative growth.
“The new frontier for personal media players is the software. We made an early bet with the FM player and wireless capabilities of the device. Now we can build on those hardware features by delivering great software. That’s what we’re doing with the 3.0 update,” Seitz revealed.
