zune doom

We bought our Zune 3 days ago and just now we're able to get it working. First you have to charge the unit and download the software, then once that is done (it takes a while), you can't connect your Zune until you update the software on the Zune! Good luck figuring that out! Finally we were very excited about the wireless feature on the Zune, but alas that didn't work.
Oh and the best part, the help feature of the Zune software didn't install properly and you get a great error saying Windows can't find the help file.
We returned the unit and bought and iPod.
shitty

I was really disappointing when I bought my 120gb Zune. not only did it take over an hour to download and install the software, but I found out later that it does not support WAV audio. It also doesn't act as a jump drive like all the other players do. What a bunch of hype. It's going back!!!
Buyer be ware!

I bought my Zune 120GB 3 months ago.
A week ago it suffered hardware failure (just before I moved from Canada to the UK). I contacted Microsoft Zune support a couple of days after I arrived in the UK.
Microsoft agreed that my device needed replacing, however, because I no longer lived in North America, they would not accept my warranty claim. They told me that if I wanted to get it fixed, then I needed to send my device to someone in Canada, who then had to send it on to Microsoft. When it was fixed Microsoft would then send it back to the third party, who would send it on to me.
I naturally contact Amazon.ca and explained the situation, and was politely told that because my device was over 30days old, they could not help me as their own returns/replacement policy only covered that period. They suggested I try to find a friend in Canada that can take care of it for me. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone in Canada reliable enough to help me out.
The end result? An expensive paperweight and a very sour taste in my mouth.
Great for a starter Mp3 player

I bought an 8GB Zune about 2 weeks ago and I LOVE it. I put every one of my 100+ CD's on it and still have 4GB of free space. The software was extremely easy to download from the site and easy to use as well. It's nice not having to use a specific music site to download from. I have 3 different pay sites that I use (Rhapsody,MP3 Suite, and Limewire Pro) and all of them automatically transfer to the Zune palyer on my computer when I save them to My Documents/Music file. It automatically loads the album art as well and doesn't seem to use up any space on the player. It looks and works great. Great buy for anyone from Novice to Expert.
