The Zone MP4 Player is coming… Should iPod be scared?

As discussed back in June in MP3 News Microsoft’s planned iPod killer - The Zune - is due for release in the States on November 14. Just in time for the holiday season!

However, as mentioned in MP4 Soup on October 25, iPod aren’t scared about loosing their market share. “It takes forever,” Apple Co-Founder Steve Jobs told Newsweek in an interview when discussing the introduction of a newbrand into a market.

So should Apple be scared? Possibly. If anything, it might be positive for consumers. Greater competition should at least motivate Apple to increase their iPod functions and reduce their prices. That’s the theory anyway.
