Most of us have been a little disappointed due to the lack of push for apps on the Zune HD, given the obvious strengths the platform possesses.

According to the twitter client maker, it was requested that he port his software to the Zune platform for substantial sum of money. Okay so details are thin on this but he apparently did decline the generous offer. For more information on this simply go to engadgetmobile.com
