The Zune's navigation is simple and intuitive with a scroll wheel and basic buttons, and the big, bright screen makes it easy to browse music and show off your favorite pictures and videos. This attractive, smart device stores up to 7,500 songs, 25,000 pictures, or 100 hours of video. Get creative. Make playlists on the go and watch slide shows while you're listening. And if you're watching video on the Zune, you'll be pleased with the landscape mode that allows you to get the most out of the vivid display. Zune-to-Zune Sharing Whether you're walking down the street, in a room with a bunch of friends, at a concert, at the airport, or on the bus, you can whip out your Zune and see all the other Zune devices that surround you. In the blink of an eye you're connected to your best friend and you can send over your band's newest song. Another friend might get the hilarious podcast your little brother made at school, plus that hot new song you just downloaded from the Zune Marketplace. And, of course, there's all the good stuff that your friends want to send back your way. The connections are made and the Zune community grows. Best of all, the song you sent (or received) isn't a short 30-second preview--it's the whole song. Your friend can sample the song up to three times in three days, flag it on their device and then buy it from the Zune Marketplace. You can send pictures, too. If you loved the photo of your dog at the park and you just have to share it with your buddies, shoot it off to whoever is around. And any pictures that are sent or received can be kept and viewed indefinitely. Sometimes you don't want to be noticed, and the Zune allows you to fly under the radar. All you need to do is turn the wireless function off, or adjust the privacy settings to control whether people can see you are online. And if you want to keep your Zune private while studying in the library or reading the newspaper on the bus, you can also block Zune devices in wireless range from sending you a song.

Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player, earphones, USB cable, and sleeve. User Submitted Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player (Red) ReviewsDate: 2008-11-16 zune 30 my zune arrived just as shown on the page. purchase was so easy and i received it 4 days before the scheduled date. Date: 2008-11-12 Better than an IPOD This product is EXCELLENT! I used to own an IPOD and had constant problems with it and the software but so far I have had no complaints about the Zune. It is a great buy! Date: 2008-11-11 good stuff I was thinking about getting an Ipod since i have a macbook pro, but I think the zune was a better choice used or not. I know a person who has a zune now for 3 years with no problems, and I know a handful of people with Ipods who's changed or had to fix them every other month. The zune has a lot of great features and the best one to me is the radio especially since i live in New York. Date: 2008-11-11 Zune vs. other mp3/ipods This is the worst possible music player I have ever used. I bought one for my niece for Christmas last year. It has been sent back to the company 5 times for repairs. It either locks up and will not shut down or you can't reformat it. If you are lucky enough to get it reformatted, after listening for about 30 minutes it does the same thing. This last time it quit working, it locked up; the screen went completely black and it would not work at all. I didn't even bother calling the company again. I will never buy one again. Date: 2008-11-04 not impressed i wanted to be impressed with this product. so far, it's been more annoying to me than anything. it is simple to use, but at the same time it's complicated. it feels like the zune is supposed to think for me, but it's so slow that i'd much rather think for myself. i have to wait for the zune to figure out that i've downloaded new music. i have to continually hit sync and sometimes it only recognizes some of the new music. i'd love it to sync automatically, which i think is what it's supposed to do, or have the choice to drag and drop files. and what's up with the zune points for music purchase? i still have to buy the points, why i can't i just buy the music for the dollar amount? i feel like i'm at a carnival with this thing. i think it's rather idiotic. once the music is downloaded to my zune, everything is fine. i wish i could choose what music i wanted to shuffle vs. the all or nothing option. i just wanted an mp3 player with enough memory for all my tunes and an easy way to make playlists. i should have done more research. next time i'll go with some off brand that does what it's supposed to do without trying to be cool.
