Zune-to-Zune Sharing
Once your Zune is loaded with good stuff, you'll be ready to embrace wireless Zune-to-Zune sharing. Share full-length tracks of your favorite songs, albums, playlists, pictures, and even audio podcasts. You can listen to the full track of any song you receive up to three times, and you can even pass along songs that are shared with you to other friends. If you find a song you really love, you can easily add it to your wishlist and buy it later when you sync to your PC. When it comes to syncing and importing your music, the Zune makes it easy. Zune software can automatically import your existing music, pictures, and videos from iTunes and Windows Media Player in a variety of formats, including your existing playlists and song ratings. Recorded TV or Movies to Go
The Zune will also automatically import TV shows or movies recorded using a PC running Windows Media Center in Windows Vista. Record all your favorites, sync to your Zune, and hit the road with your favorite TV shows right in your pocket. Your Games. Your Music. Your Way.
Another awesome feature is the Zune's compatibility with the Xbox 360. Plug your Zune into your Xbox 360 to customize the soundtrack in supported games. You also can stream music, pictures, and videos from the Zune software on your PC to your Xbox 360 console using a wireless connection. Whether you're staying in or going out, travelling or working, the Zune can be right there with you, providing loads of entertainment direct from your pocket.

 4 GB Zune Media Player September 7, 2008
I bought this for my 13 yr old daughter. She liked my 30 gb Zune but didn't want to spend that much. Item was shipped ond recieved on time. Operation is just like the bigger models. We both like the ability to sort and play songs using custom playlists. Very easy to use. I think it is easier than any i-Pod model. The price was lower than local stores and was shipped free.
Zune September 6, 2008
It is a very good product, easy to load. My only problem with it is the softeare, you have to go online to download the software, personally myself . I wish it came with a disk, and unfortunately, if you do not keep all your music on your hard drive, the next time you connect your Zune to your computer all the music in the Zune will be deleted out of your Zune, which will add additional expense to the product of purchasing a auxiliary hard drive for backing up your musid, videos, photos etc., to me, this is a very annoying feature that I wish It did not have.
A Zune is Exactly What I Was Looking For, The Zune Software Wasn't September 6, 2008
Previously owned a Creative mp3 player (a Zen Microphoto) and junked it after I ran into the same problem that almost everybody who has a Zen has run into - I tried to upgrade the firmware and ended up dead in space. I went searching for a new player, trying to keep in the same memory range (8 Gigs). Never been a fan of the ipods, I feel like I'm paying an unneeded 80 extra bucks for a lower case i. I bought the 2nd gen. Zune and I'm completely satisfied. It has awesome audio quality, and, even though I wasn't looking for it, video quality. It's incredibly easy to organize songs and playlists, and is great whether you're like me and just want to make different playlists for different things and don't care about anything else, or you're really obsessed with putting you're life into an mp3 player with album art and info, friends, and the whole Zune social thing.
All being said, the software is sadly lacking, and the fact that Microsoft (1) couldn't design a player that just had a regular old mini usb jack instead of their own custom jack so they could make more money off accessories, and (2) couldn't make their own MICROSOFT product compatible with MICROSOFT software (like Windows Media Player). WMP 11 is a surprisingly versatile player/software, but the Zune can only be run with the Zune software, which while having some nice qualities has really annoying quirks. It always tries to sync with the Zune (so maybe I want my library to be different from my player!), has annoyingly small pop-up windows which you can't make bigger, won't recognize a great deal of video files which it also doesn't have the capability of converting to a file it will recognize, isn't able to change the media information of a file (it will change information in the software and the Zune, but can't change info for you in My Computer like RealPlayer can) and doesn't have a feature that allows you to play songs at one volume. Despite these quirks it is incredibly easy to make and organize playlists, and if you're into it you can find album art for all your songs in a fairly easy manner. If you're like me and just want to load songs into playlists on your player in a one-time deal, this is a great player, and a much better deal than an ipod or creative product. Even if you're obsessive with neatness and organziation, this is an awesome product if you're willing to put up with a few quirks that seem like they could easily be solved in a few software patches.
Final Opinion: BUY THIS ITS BETTER THAN AN IPOD AND CHEAPER TOO!
 The Zune Disappointment September 5, 2008
I ordered my Zune on August 1st. It was supposed to be instock and ship the next day. It didn't. I got the Zune about two weeks later - I had already received the travel kit and the fm-car charger. The Zune has aready died and has been sent back for repair or replacement - it was purchased for a special long airplane trip but probably won't return in time to make the trip. The fm receiver charger doesn't work well in a large metro area - too many fm stations. Now if the Amazon 90 days same as cash with your Amazon Visa doesn't work, the cycle will be complete.
Microsoft finally got something RIGHT September 5, 2008
After purchasing 4 or 5 30GB Chocolate Zunes from Amazon.com when they were at "fire-sale" prices, and being totally pleased with them, (I gave some away as gifts) I decided to try the 8GB Zune2. I couldn't be happier! For my needs all my Zunes work perfectly. On my 30GB Zunes I watch mostly wmv videos, many of which I DVR from the cable, remove the commercials, convert them to wmvs using Sony Vegas, and watch them on my Zunes at my convenience. The 8GB Zune2 I just got is used mostly to play streamed talk radio, because I like to listen to Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity at my convenience, plus I play wmv videos while waiting for my wife at the doctor's office. Excellent job Microsoft, you finally got something RIGHT!!! wrh
