User Submitted Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player (Red) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-10-26 DOES NOT CHARGE THIS PRODUCT HAS NOT WORKED CORRECTLY SINCE I BOUGHT IT; I have been getting the runaround with Microsoft repair for 3 months. I would save yourself a head ache and buy an IPOD. Date: 2008-10-23 Don't do it Think again before you buy a Zune. Before you do, go look in any store and see how few accessories there are for it compared to Ipods and other players. If you want to plug it into a stereo or receiver, the only way to do it is with the universal MP3 jack. Very few manufactuers have cradles compatible with the Zune. Other than very few accessories and compatible products available, the player itself is all right. The biggest problem is with the Zune software. The word "Zune" must be latin for "bug" because the software has a lot of them. You would think that with it being a Microsoft product, they could come up wiht a good support software or at least build on the (very good) Windows Media Player. It didn't happen. They make you use the Zune software, which is designed to entice you to buy stuff from their very limited selection of music, but not much else. I have a good-sized collection of songs and I subscribe to several podcasts. The Zune software on my XP machine shuts down or encounters a problem and has to rebuild the database typically about every two weeks. When that happens, you have to go in and resubscribe to your podcasts and reset your sync options. Sometimes you have to go to the esoteric help and Windows Update sites to manually download and install patches. Sometimes you have to run the same patch more than once. Their latest issue is a problem with the "Windows.NET framework", whatever that is. I own two 30GB Zunes. I bought one for myself and one for my wife at about the same time. When I finally get fed up with them and throw them out of the car window, I will buy Sansas or Ipods. The Sansas will sync with Windows Media Player. Date: 2008-10-21 Problem with Zune I have purchased Zune last year and now its dead, can not be charged. I tried everything but nothing is working. I have wasted $230.00 for peice of junk. Date: 2008-10-15 FANTASTIC DEAL My husband was very pleased with the Zune loves it better than any of the ipods and thanks Amazon for the Fantastic deal on it. Date: 2008-10-15 works great! works great, i've had no problems with it so far. technology is a little strange in the beginning, but you get used to it. the case is solid as a rock, i've droped it several times and as far as i can tell, there is no damage.
