I just read this link from another website. Seems interesting. I don't know how real it is or not, but it's a fun read either way!

Edit:

Looks like it's all fake, so let's change the focus of the thread...do you think the Zune will be hacked like this? How long do you think it will take?

I personally would jump all over a Zune if the WiFi DRM were removed or at least toned down. Also, more features to connect to a PC would be really nice.

i love that response that says the hacker should be arrested-

because sweden is full of beautiful girls and yet there he is busy just hacking a Zune.

i think it's a false rumor.

Yeah, I saw another post in the Zune review thread that says everything on the website is false. Too bad, it would make the Zune pretty appealing if this stuff were real.

Edit: Yep, that's the post! Though I wouldn't doubt this will happen at some point...perhaps just not stealing other peoples music.

well the hacker would only be enhancing the user function of 'music sharing' that microsoft is trying to promote!

When Rockbox is fully ported to the Zune, I think it will free it from those restrictions MS put on it.

It will be hacked. It's just a matter of time.

 

[rockin_amigo14]

just gotta convince the hackers that this device is worth owning to hack.

 

[Dominat0r]

If it were to get hacked, it would be worth it =)

Dam catch 22...no one wants it until its hacked, but cant hack it until you bite the bullet and buy one haha

I would ask my parents to get me one if it were hacked.

I am counting the days when Rockbox announces Zune ports

Yeah I was going to say... even if this isn't true it WILL happen, it has too, there isn't anything out there than can't be hacked given time.

The DRM in wma files has already been cracked: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=114916

Yeah. I'm positive it'll only be a matter of time. A lot of computer gadget geeks are onto this kinda stuff. I hope they can SPDIF-out this sucker so we head-fi amp fellows will have another portable bliss alternative.
