"If you like to download the latest episodes of �Heroes� or other NBC shows from BitTorrent, maybe you shouldn�t buy a Microsoft Zune to watch them on.
A future update of the software for Microsoft�s portable media player may well include a feature that will block unauthorized copies of copyrighted videos from being played on it.
Tuesday, Microsoft announced that it would start selling video programming for the Zune, mainly TV shows. These include programs from NBC Universal, which has pulled its shows off Apple�s iTunes Store.
Late Tuesday afternoon I reached J. B. Perrette, the president of digital distribution for NBC Universal, to ask why NBC found Microsoft�s video store more appealing than Apple�s."
