Microsoft Responds To GameStop Dropping Zune Sales

In response to GameStop dropping sales of the Zune, Microsoft on Friday said its portable media player that competes with the Apple iPod has seen “good momentum online and at retail.”

GameStop, which makes nearly all its money selling videogames, told TheStreet.com that it made the decision about a month ago to stop selling the Zune because of weak demand. The company planned to continue selling the device online until it clears out its inventory.
