<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.Woot.com' target='_blank'>http://www.Woot.com</a><br /><br /></div><em>&quot;I have received more than three emails from Zune buyers who are upset about Woot dropping the price of the Zune by $20 one month after it went on sale the first time. After reading every one of these emails, or at least scanning their subject lines, I have some observations and conclusions. First, I need to make a better effort to hide my email address. Second, I am sure that we are making the correct decision to lower the price of the 30GB Zune from $149.99 to $129.99.&quot;</em><br /><br />Woot.com has pulled through again, lowering their already incredibly low price to correspond with <a href="http://zuneinsider.com/archive/2007/09/05/price-drop.aspx" target="_blank">Microsoft's official price drop</a>. The new price is almost half the original suggested retail price, making this one amazing value. A few caveats: they're only selling white Zunes, they're only available today, and once they're gone, they're gone.<br /><br />Well, what are you waiting for? Get clicking!<br /><br />If that weren't enough, they were able to make fun of Steve Jobs' iPhone price drop apology, <u>and</u> give Wooters who bought the Zune last time around a $10 credit to any Woot $40 or more. How do you like <em>them</em> apples?<br /><br /><strong>UPDATE:</strong> It's Gone, all Gone! Congrats to everyone who was able to beat the rush.

Pretty funny. I never understood why people whine about price cuts. Isn't a lower price a good thing? Would they be happier if it stayed expensive? (Actually, I guess those who paid the "nerd tax" by adopting early would prefer that.)

Is this an indicator that the arrival of Zune 2 is nigh?
