Today however, Microsoft says it was misquoted and that have not yet reached one million sold although they are on track to hit that mark by the end of June.
Cesar Menendez, a product manager for Zune, made the restatement but did add that "we've achieved our goal of being the number 2 player in the hard-drive category."
The player holds a decent 10 percent market share of the HDD based music player market but only a 3 percent overall market share.
During the same period, Apple has sold about 25 million iPods but nevertheless, Microsoft is happy about their progress.
Robbie Bach said reaching the milestone was "a good start," but also added, "I'm not going to pretend it's some gigantic move."
