Zune is very easy to use - and no WMP is a standalone software and only syncs to plays for sure devices, like Archos, creative (for example)Install the zune software, and just use it to find your files and import them. They will still be in WMP. The Zune software is a lot more sophisticated, and I think you will like it.

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.

I have thousands of songs on my WMP 11, can't I just use that to sync? And if I have to "import" all of it to Zune's software, will it still be on my WMP too?

You are welcome, and I should clarify a little bit. The zune subscription allows you to download any song you want to listen to and sync to your zune every month, and you get to keep 10 songs per month (you just "buy" them with your credits.) As long as you keep the subscription, those millions of songs you download to sync to your zune will be playable/syncable. The 10 songs you "buy" with your credits are yours to keep forever. :)

Not sure. You should contact Microsoft and your Zune Kicker support for clarification, if they are still supporting it. (Again, MS has NO support for the Zune device anymore, so you can't get help from that end.)

I think there will be the native capability soon, due to the fact that the Zune 2 has the functionality and that people are asking for it. Either Apple will do it or independent developers will since Apple is releasing the SDK...

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! :)

In my opinion the best thing about the Zune is the marketplace. You can subscribe and download a bunch of music for just the flat rate. Other than that they are pretty much the same. You can download stuff from limewire and add it to the Zune no problem just by linking where that program saves the files. The other problem with the zune is there are not alot of accessories for the product. That might change but if you go to the store the amount of products for Ipods especially if you want a radio that will be instantly compatible you have to go Ipod. I hate saying it because I'm now Zune all the way, I've even converted my wife to zune, but damn, every time I walk into the store I wish mine would be compatible with some of the boom boxes that are sold there. If you need any other info just let me know, I own a 80g Zune, an 8g and an old 30g. I know zunes.

The 80G Zune says its shipped from Target. When you click on the Target it tells about Amazon and Target "partnership". Well Amazon Target is Pi**ing off your customers while Target stores HAVE 80G Zunes in stock! I just left my local Target and sure enough they have a 80G Zune. Target doesn't care about Amazon customers they want you and me to come to their store buy the Zune and OTHER stuff while in the store. ....and cancel all he stuff we buy here at Amazon! Wake up Amazon.....and take care of YOUR business!

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,

I can't believe the Zune would do that! Its beyond logic!! What they want you to do is have a portable device for your music but also have a non-portable copy?? The Sony syncs perfectly and the function is only 'addition'. If you want to delete, you have to delete from the player(but it has to be connected to your PC, you cannot delete from the player on its own). It also does not overwrite if you are trying to add a file that is already there. Once the player is connected to the PC and Windows Media Player is opened, there is a separate area where you drag the files that you want synced. I guess that is what prevents it from functioning like the Zune.

I have the same problem, pre-ordered new Zune 80, and interested in this pack. I see that there is a new a/v pack. Is this 100% certain? Are there any official sources of info on this?

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.

Kevin, u got it wrong..It comes with a USB cable which will charge your player the moment you connect it to your PC :) Same goes for iPod..The charger that you see on the marketplace is IF you want to plug in the Zune to power socket.. :) While you are syncing your player, it will do the charging for you..isnt that just fine?

> Buy an ipod, the Zune will go the way of HD-DVD and Betamax.Just FYI:iPod doesn't support OverDrive wma, so it's not even an option here.Besides, Zune supports .mp3, .wma, AAC (.m4a/.m4b), .wmv, and .mp4/.m4v (as well as audio CD to rip). So Zune users wouldn't have problems like they had with HD-DVD/Betamax even if MS discontinued Zune.

That is too bad about cucusoft.I downloaded various video to my zune with that program and it worked better than I expected.Maybe you should delete it from your zune and backup on your computer and copy it over again and reload it to your zune.good luck.

That is not true. There are pleanty of conversion programs that will take iTunes M4V's and convert them to WMV to play on the Zune, and legally too. I have done it. Tuenbite platinum is an EXCELLENT program to convert iTune and all other DRM media to play on pretty much anything...including the ZUNE! Enjoy.

I got this for Christmas today and mine did not work with my Zune HD. My husband has a 8gb zune and it worked just fine with his. I am planning on sending mine back which sucks because I don't want to pay 80 dollars for the HD car pack. Goodluck and let me know if you find anything that does work with the HD!

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.
