Zune Refocuses With HD, Gaming

In a slew of firsts for Microsoft’s answer to the iPod Touch, Zune will become a gaming device and will go HD on Tuesday, and it will start renting and selling movies alongside the TV shows it already rents.

The upgrades are part of an initiative to make Zune “the entertainment brand for Microsoft, for music and video,” said Brian Seitz, group marketing manager for Zune.

The new HD Zune will sell for $220 to $290, depending on the memory.
