Real quick,

do a Google search for ZuneChannel.com. What you won't find is a result for ZuneChannel.com the website (that's here, if you're curious). What, or rather who, you will find is Gene From ZuneChannel.com. Gene's a busy man, it seems. Where ever on the web there is an article discussing the Zune, he's there. Relentlessly optimistic, fiercely protective and always polite to a fault, this man loves him some Zune, and isn't afraid to post a comment about it. Weather chiding iPod lovers for being too hard on the Zune and overlooking it's many fine features, or thanking some other journalist for spreading the Good Zune Word, Gene is out there in the digital trenches fighting the good fight.

Or, more probably, the paid fight.

Given that this man is everywhere and actually runs a site called Zunechannel.com leads me to question his impartiality. What we're most likely watching here is a thinly disguised attempt at astroturfing.
