Microsoft sold more than a million Zune music players

Microsoft announced on May 28 that it had reached its goal of selling 1 million Zune music players ahead of time, currently accounting for 10% of the hardware-based music player market share.

" It's a good start. It's not a big start and we don't think it's a miracle ," said Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's entertainment equipment division.

If compared to the iPod, Zune is still far behind, this Apple music player has sold 25 million units, and around the same time Zune has to take to achieve a production of 1 million. Microsoft still has a lot of work to do with Zune, and although the product has a good start, it still can't match the iPod in terms of user numbers and popularity.

Apple sold 10.55 million iPods within three months, and by early April, the company claimed to have sold the 100 million iPod. The iPod is so well known that there are currently more than 4,000 devices supporting this product, including Nike shoes.
