The Unknown Pleasures of Microsoft’s Zune

Thu Jun 5, 4:09 PM GMT

ImageSpin.com reports that Microsoft is releasing a limited edition Joy Division-themed Zune portable media player.

Spin reports that the player features 1979’s Unknown Pleasures cover art work by Factory Records artist Peter Saville on its back panel. Additionally, notes the report, the player has 80GB of storage space and comes pre-loaded with the Joy Division documentary—all for $400. Only 500 units will be sold through zuneoriginals.net, however, which may make it a much-desired commodity.
