Microsoft response to iTunes: Urge

Looks like Bill is after another market share. This time he’s after a big piece of the pie that belongs to Apple.
Urge will feature MTV content for media centers and portable media players but NOT for iPod.

But not directly related to this topic but also in the same article, this is my favorite part:

Microsoft indicated that later this year, it will start selling external HD-DVD drives, which will enable users to watch high definition DVDs via their Xbox machines and also allow greater interactivity. At the outset, the new drive will be only for movies and does not include games.

Great! You spend 400� in a console that only reads DVDs and then you buy the HD-DVD drive for how much?? And no games will be supported! Way to go Microsoft.
