Why Apple Should Fear Zune

Computerworld's Mike Elgan lays out why Apple should be taking the Zune seriously. Two of his more compelling points is that it's "social and viral" ... and that Microsoft is taking the MySpace crowd more to heart. They may also have more programming lined up than Apple ... which is probably the most grave issue I could think of for the iPod. Apple is clearing betting that the iPod needs a broader media market - from songs to shows to moviest to games.

I wonder ... if Microsoft releases games for the Zune ... would they release their SDK for it?
