Curious to know what caused Apple’s iPod rival Microsoft’s Zune 30GB frozen issue — here is for those technical minds.

If you are a programmer or know a bit of C-Language code then here is piece of code that made Zune stop working :

year = ORIGINYEAR; /* = 1980 */

while (days > 365){    if (IsLeapYear(year))    {        if (days > 366)        {            days -= 366;            year += 1;        }    }    else    {        days -= 365;        year += 1;    }}

On 366 th day the “if (days > 366)” will stop subtracting anything if the loop happens to be on a leap year. That’s where it enters infinite loop.

Come 2012 we will see this problem again.
