I think it's just been zune and xbox music reminds me though I saw this headline today about how ~13% of consumers consistently pick loser brands for everything e: quote:Researchers looked at retail purchases made by about 130,000 consumers at a national convenience store chain, and found that 13% of them had buying habits that predicted failure of a new product. Failure in this case means surviving less than three years. About half or more of the products they bought were doomed to die before they had a chance to make it big.

Edit: like if you're at work and a co-worker starts desperately trying to evangelize some new product and why it's better than the leading one there's like a 9/10 chance they don't hold some secret insight and it is in fact terrible

you guys forgot about MSN Music which was separate from the Zune store In April 2008, Microsoft announced that the DRM servers for MSN Music would be deactivated on 2008-08-31. After this date, it was no longer possible to reauthorize purchased songs when changing computers or operating systems.[2] They have suggested that customers back-up their music by burning it to CD.[3]

Groove is actually one of the more sensible names they could come up with, problem is Xbox music is awful for a myriad of reasons besides the name also, lol that W10 is going rtm in a few days

"Windows Store app built for Windows" "enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit" "Skype for Desktop" so, i assume that in 2 years they will brand their mice "groove" and rebrand their music service as "redstone music"

actually, the first step will be different tiers of service groove for students groove for home and small businesses groove for enterprise groove for keyboard manufacturers after they have done that for a while, they will realize they have another toxic brand in their hands

if groove takes off it won't be renamed later, other things will get named to it i bet they start with bing as its a ballmer era product and they'll think that 'groove search' is a natural to take down google as 'g' has consumer search mind share where bings 'b' meant the battle was unwinnable
