    Zune mass suicide

    Looks like we've got a bunch Lemmings in electronic form now, as many Zune's around the world failed in the past 5 or 6 hours.

    Zune.net forum thread

    Millennium Bugz II. Anyone here suffering from it?

    That's incredible. That forum has 105 pages in that thread since 8am today.

    Nice to see Microsoft keeping their usual standard of failure.

    And apparently they're working again. Supposedly a bug regarding leap years or something.
