Forgive me if this is a stupid suggestion, but since the firmware itself is proving so difficult to hack, would it be feasible to create an alternate framework that runs off of XNA? As in, it would be a "game" of sorts, but once launched, it would basically be an alternate firmware for your Zune?
I'm pretty sure XNA games can access the files on the Zune's hard drive, right? So can't we technically write an XNA program that stores its own database of the Zune's music and videos and stuff, and interact with the Zune through the program?
I don't know if this is at all possible, but it seems like a reasonably feasible alternative if the firmware's proving too hard to crack. Any opinions?
