Microsoft retires Zune.net; redirects to Xbox.com
As of this week, visitors who head to Zune.net will find that they will be redirected to a page on Microsoft's Xbox.com website. The page has a long FAQ that describes the transition from Zune Music to Xbox Music. As we reported earlier this week, Windows 7 users will still be able to download and use the Zune Music client.
Users who are already subscribed to the Zune Music Pass service are told by Microsoft that they "... will automatically become Xbox Music Pass customers and will have access to everything they love about Zune and more." However, the FAQ makes a point to state that Windows 7 users won't get all of the features available for Xbox Music. It says, " ... to enjoy the enhanced features and full benefits, an Xbox Music Pass must be enjoyed on Windows 8 PC's and tablets, Windows Phone 8 devices, and Xbox 360."

I had a look at Zune at one point, it looked ok, but not my cup of tea. I am sure Xbox Music will be taking a big leap forward from Zune and introduce a range of new features.

I didn't use Zune much, but that sucks for the people who did, at least they get something back out of it since it's been removed though.
