Can I load my current Music to Zune ? Just ordered two Zune 8 GB then I read that I must purchase music from Zune?

The zune software will import your mp3 or wma files from your computer to its library. You can also purchase music from Zune marketplace, and/or get a subscription which is $14.99 a month and gives you 10 downloads each month.

Amazon's MP3 Downloads will play on any audio player. Zune offers music through its software (in a manner similar to Apple) which is in a mix of MP3 file types that will play on any player, and music formatted to play only on the Zune. This is, again, identical to how Apple operates iTunes - the difference is in what formats each company sells its specially formatted music. For what it's worth, I find the Zune plays music with a richer and fuller sound than iPod. You should also know that both the Zune and the iPod require that you use their software to sync music from your hard drive to the player.I hope this is helpful (and I hope you choose/chose the Zune)!

Ipod and Zune's have two different docks. If it was a usb connection then you could but they wouldn't call it an ipod dock.

Hi D. Clemens... I didn't see a response to this, so I just wanted to give some assistance. The instruction manual on page 45 states that you can run pictures and music from any USB device. I did see some comment that the Zune MP3 player wasn't supported. Thanks,

Actually, in response to my other question, nevermind. I found through Yahoo! Answers the "secret" to making YouTube videos Zune compatible. I've followed it with zero problems, and now I've got some kickass music videos on my Zune. :)For anybody interested in the tutorial, you have to visit:http://www.zunescene.com/forums/index.php?topic=4946.0I swear, this is the absolute most helpful little thing I've found related to the Zune to date. :)

The usb charging cable for the Zune acts as a data cable when connected to PC. I haven't transferred any files to or from my zune in years but I remember installing the zune software on my Windows PC, transferring my songs, pictures and videos off of my zune and onto my PC. I don't believe the files have DRM encryption so I believe you should then be able to transfer the files from your PC over to a flash drive. Let me know if that helps. Good luck

Eric - check the Reviews. One other buyer has evaluated the item on a Zune 120GB.

Have you been able to find any more suggestions on a frozen zune? I have tried your ideas, but it's still frozen. I would appreciate any more info you might have to offer.Thanks!

On my computer Zune automatically found all af my WMP and Itunes files and organized them.I have to say that after owning many MP-3 players, including I-Pods, that Zune is definately a good choice.

I'm 99% sure that they are incompatible. For one thing, they are completely different companies, rivals even. If you didn't know, they had at one point worked together before they had their businesses, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. I'd say that I would just buy a Zune Dock or get an ipod dock that has an aux output so you can use your Zune plugged into the ipod dock.

All MP3s will work on the device, but some features on the Zune HD won't be available unless you buy from the Zune Pass, like the artist background.

Heads up for you Faerie :)Zune's software runs better than the iTunes inmho..and its easy to use..Just once click, and you can sync it..be it on USB or wireless..I was using nano before and it took me long time to get used to the iTunes software..Get the Zune and love your player! :)

No, the Zune is only compatible with Zune Software, which they are phasing out and now call X-Box Music. If I were you I wouldn't buy a Zune. If you have a smart phone, I would suggest using a music app and your phone as the MP3 player.

The Zune has a 60mb version, I saw it at Walmart, I don't know if it's 60mb exactly but it's a small portable Zune.Besides the Zune has just came out, you can't expect it to have all the models that the Ipod already has.
