Trial Subscription for Zune.

It seems that Microsoft got plans to spur subscriptions by offering a 14-day trial subscription to its Zune Pass. Similar to already existing music download sites like Napster or URGE, Microsoft lets Zune owners download an unlimited number of songs while their subscription remains active, but they are going to delete the songs afterwards.

This free trial is another Microsoft's strategy for its Zune. Accoring to some popular poll, 58% of current iPod users said they were very interested in picking up a Zune player over iPod. Regardless of what critics on Zune say, the time will only tell if Zune can really compete with iPod.
