It was even worse.
Microsoft introduced a hard drive based player years after the flash based Nanos were already more popular.
Then MS released the flash based non touch screen Zunes after the iPod Touch was becoming popular.
Finally they released the touch screen Zunes after the App Store came out and the Zunes couldn’t run third party apps. Even the hard drive based iPods had a few curated third party apps by 2005.
