Microsoft Corp. has confirmed that it's considering plans to build its own portable music player to rival Apple Computer Inc.'s iPod, which has captured the lion share of the market at the expense of competitors offering devices with Microsoft's music player.

The software maker is working on plans to develop its own device, rather than just rely on partners to take on Apple, which is becoming a dominant player in entertainment on the Web. Microsoft would seem to have put together a team to consider the business behind such as initiative so hopefully Microsoft may issue a media player down the track.
