iPod-killer hacked
Saturday, November 25, 2006 at 11:19
The latest iPod killer from Microsoft (the Zune), has been 'hacked'. A pretty simple registry hack (on your PC) is all it takes to access the device as a mass storage device and copy stuff form it.
Also, just rename any file extension to .jpg (image file extension) and 'share' them among other Zune users.
A firmware upgrade will probably disable these features in the future.
Another (unconfirmed) hack is to enable special features on the Zune, so that it can be used as a paper-weight :). I wonder if this really works, because I could use a good paper-weight.
