Microsoft is allegedly porting current Zune HD apps to its Windows Phone 7 smartphone OS line.
The news comes via the latest Zune Insider podcast and transcribed here:

The apps that we have built internally for Zune [HD], we’re actually looking at porting those over to Windows Phone. Right now, our focus for the app team is, more apps for Zune [HD]. Zune [HD] owners would like to hear that there’s more stuff coming. So that’s definitely the case.

Microsoft announced earlier this year that it would be ending the physical Zune line, with the HD being the last of the company's media players.

"Zune" as a brand will live on as software in WP7, Xbox Live and on the PC.
