What is the deal? My first thought was "urgh, tacky", but hey, to each his own. I mouse over it and it seems to be some kind of promo... only when you click on it, you are taken to a site calling itself Zune Arts.

Do you remember Zune? It was the horribly awful music player developed by Microsoft. They planned to sell one million in the first year: they sold 35,000. Microsoft will not let this horse die, apparently.

I've no idea what Jon has to do with this, if anything, but the phrase "selling out" is drifting through my mind. This is a kind of advertising I think the world could do without.
