I agree with that in theory, but in practical terms that's up to the music studios and not Microsoft. I do hope, however, that the Zune team pushes the music studios hard to allow them to display that information (I assume it's the music studios that don't want the "no sharing" information to be displayed - if it's solely Microsoft, then it's even more inexcusable).

I think that just like the iPod, most of the music on Zunes are not from the Zune Marketplace, so I don't think the technology of wireless sharing will die - if anything, it will just drive people away from Zune Marketplace.
