 I just checked which domains has Microsoft registered which contain the word "Zune" in them. ZuneOriginals.net according to this rumor is going to provide Zune 80 customized Zunes. I was astonished that Microsoft has registered at least 1 domain in .net and 26 (!) in .com about Zune Originals. Some names imply shops and forums / communities. -- EDIT: Microsoft (not sure in most cases) has registered ZuneOriginals domain in many other TLDs. including European countries. -- By the way what is this www.cdwZuneLoad.com site? ...
First of all I used the latest available data from the .net and .com Top Level Domains. Microsoft may have registered many more Zune domains than these, but may still not transfered to their system, so not visible to way I used to find these. So here is the list sorted from the oldest registered domain to the newest:

EDIT: ZuneSpeler noticed in a comment below that ZuneOriginals has been registered in many other TLDs including many European countries. In most case the name of the registrant is hiding, but some show clearly that they belong to Microsoft: zuneoriginals.eu
zuneoriginals.nl
zuneoriginals.de
zuneoriginals.co.uk
zuneoriginals.es
zuneoriginals.it
zuneoriginals.fr
zuneoriginals.pl zuneoriginals.org
zuneoriginals.info
Check the latest .com domains registered, they are all about Zune Originals! Zune team doesn't register multiple domain names for a project they start. Does this change means we should expect something big from Zune Originals or its just a in different online Marketing attitude? All of them are currently inactive except to ZuneOriginals.net, ZuneLiveAtTheBBQ.net, cdwZuneLoad.com, ZuneMasters.com . Some others just forward visitors to these domains (especially Zune.net and Zune-Arts.net). A site I hadn't see before is cdwZuneLoad.com . From what is says its an old (forgotten ?) project about marketing Podcasts in partnership with CDW Corporation . Maybe now that Zune supports them, Zune team will revive it. Tip: when you register, the only you can do is to download the available Podcasts from here:
