Microsoft has announced that a Zune music player produced in collaboration with Latin Grammy-nominated artists Wisin y Yandel, Machete Music and Wal-Mart will go on sale exclusively at Wal-Mart on October 29th for $199.

The black, limited-edition 30GB Zune will come pre-loaded with the new Wisin y Yandel album, "Wisin vs. Yandel: Los Extraterrestres", before it is available in stores, and will also feature an exclusive track, music videos, photos and concert footage.

Why should you care? Well, if like us you're Blighty-based then it's not a biggie, but it does show Microsoft's commitment to pushing the Zune players following their relaunch last month and the early availability of the album is a good idea as a sales tool.
