Zune Community Site Zuneboards Sold For $62K

I’ll resist the temptation to make a crack about how at least somebody is making money on the Zune, but… Zuneboards, a community site devoted to Microsoft’s (NSDQ: MSFT) iPod rival, was sold for $62k to Crowdgather, according to the OC Register (via Boston Herald). The Santa Ana, CA-based site was launched by 15-year old Hansup Yoon, and is basically a mix of a message board and Zune-focused blog. Crowdgather is a message board aggregator, having acquired over 70 other forums and message boards. Zuneboards claims to make $1,000 a month in profit and has 60,000 members.
