Zune fails in beating the Ipod
iPods claimed five of the top ten spots in Amazon’s consumer electronics chart over the key US shopping weekend.
Apple’s portable music players took another five of the top 25 bestsellers, with Microsoft’s heavily marketed Zune so far behind that it was outsold by an iPod accessory. The Microsoft player was number 75 behind Apple’s USB power adapter at 65.
Apple’s own stores aside, a recent survey found that 70 per cent of retailers recommend iPods in preference to other players.
