Is the HD in Zune HD just a marketing gimmick?
Matthew Miller: OK, the Zune HD was officially announced by Microsoft this week, but what really is the deal with the HD branding in the name? I imagine if you asked your family and friends what that meant to them they would probably say that you can watch HD quality TV and movie content on the Zune portable media device. I know that is what I thought before reading further into the details, but that would be wrong. You see, there are only two aspects of the device that have to do with HD and I doubt most consumers will even use these functions. One is for HD radio and the other to connect to an external HD monitor to view content. Are these really that compelling to cause people to run out and buy a Zune HD?
