Zune starts with a digital media player and adds a twist. You can wirelessly share selected full-length sample tracks, playlists, pictures or your homegrown tracks directly from Zune to Zune. You can listen to the full-length songs that you receive up to three times in three days, flag the ones you like and easily buy them the next time you sync up. You can discover new music in the Zune Marketplace, and show off your favorite pictures and videos on the big, bright screen. Zune has all that and a built in FM tuner, too. Let your inner DJ run wild.

Summary: Typical Microsoft
Comment: I agree that the Zune has a good look about it, though a bit heavy and thick (as others have mentioned). I tried using the software that came with it, downloaded the upgrade of the software. Didn't sync well at all or it did partially. As a well-seasoned Microsoft user (now Vista) I decided to use Windows Media Player (as it said on the MP panel). After being very excited about that initially ... that didn't work either. I went online only to see what experience others had. After reading several not-so-flattering blogs from others trying to find a way for this thing to work, I finally found a way to solve my problem. I went to the workshop and took out a hammer and applied it to the Zune. No more problem. It was in a funny way very therapeutic. I think we both felt better as both of us were out of our misery. I went and got an iPod Classic. Not a single problem with that. Stay clear of anything Microsoft. I'm now a convert to Apple.

Summary: Wow. I never thought I could hate a product this much...
Comment: Okay, so I bought a Zune (one that was refurbished.) and thought, "Maybe the people who complain in the reviews aren't very computer knowledgeable." Ho,ho,ho was I wrong! And am I sorry I thought that!
Installing the software had some glitches (I needed a roll-up service pack for my Media Center? WTF?), was really slow ( I clocked it at 2hours 15minutes) and it took too long to start up. I waited 5 minutes until the screen popped up. NO JOKE!
What I really hated was the fact that you couldn't choose the content loaded into your media player. There are just some songs that I just want to listen to on my computer and not on an MP3 player.
Now, I have some movies from the public archive website and they wouldn't load into the player. WHY GOD, WHY? Well apparently, you have to convert the movie into some sort of weird format and then send it to the Zune folder. I also couldn't put t.v. shows on my player, which was the main reason I bought that player! Again, I had to convert it and I just don't have the time or the patience to do that. Also, I have taken some songs from my mom's computer and put it on mine and downloaded the license and everything, but they said that I have to have had the original c.d. ripped to my computer. *SCREAMS*
So in conclusion, DO NOT for my sanity and yours, BUY THIS PLAYER! If you want a pain-free player, buy a Sansa E series. It goes into Windows Media Player and no weird software!
This player is junk and Microsoft should be ashamed!

Summary: Awesome!
Comment: This is a great product! I'm glad I got the Zune player over the iPod because of the larger screen. My one friend who has a 30 GB iPod asked me how if I liked my Zune player because he was thinking of getting one too and I told him that I LOVED it!
