Entertainment and sharing to go. That's the Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player. The Zune plays music and videos, displays images, and unlike the iPod, it even receives FM radio so you can stay on top of local news or sports. Designed around the principles of sharing, discovery, and community, Zune connects people and empowers them with the tools needed to share entertainment experiences. The Zune experience is centered around connection--connection to your library, friends, community, and other Zunes. It's powered by software that allows users to manage files on the player, rip audio CDs, and buy from a wide selection of music and videos at the Zune Marketplace. The Zune lets you share music and pictures with other Zune users in the area. View menu interface.

You can wirelessly share selected full-length sample tracks, playlists, pictures, or your own home-grown tunes directly from Zune to Zune (within 30 feet). You can listen to the full-length songs that you receive up to three times in three days, flag the ones you love, and easily buy them the next time you sync up--its like test-driving songs before you purchase an album.

Zune-to-Zune Sharing Don't forget the primary principle of the Zune: sharing. With this device in hand you're holding an opportunity to share music and photos wirelessly from one Zune to another. Send your favorite tracks or images to your friends, or just about anyone with a Zune that's within your reach. 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 Marketplace Zune makes it easy to find music you love--whether it's songs in your existing library or new music from the Zune Marketplace. You can easily import your existing music, pictures, and videos in many popular formats from your PC and browse millions of songs at the Zune Marketplace where you can purchase individual tracks or buy a Zune Pass subscription to download as many songs as you want for a flat fee. Plus, you can apply Microsoft Points towards the purchase of music so you can buy online without a credit card for added security. At the Zune Marketplace you can read over 100,000 artist biographies and features from leading magazines including XLR8R, NME, and FADED, and you'll have easy access to Billboard Charts, including Billboard 200, Hot 100 Songs, and more.

My girlfriend loves it.. :-) by Dinker Joshi 5 Stars
November 26, 2009
I gifted it to my GF. She is happily using it since 2 years now. no complaints till date. I liked it myself, the screen size was twice as much as Ipod (back then ipod touch didnt hit the market). I got it for $90 back then, I still believe it was not a deal but a steal.. :-) Only once it froze with diamond image on screen, Googled and found that once battery gets fully drained and it gets shutdown, next charge will solve the issue... tried and it was resolved. And yes inbuilt Radio also rocks.. It was my first buy from Amazon, now its my favourite site to shop.. My next buy: Nokia N900.. :-)

Great alternative to Ipod by Timothy G. Cart (central coast, ca) 5 Stars

I much prefer it to my girl friend's Ipod in everyway. Battery life isn't GREAT but oh well. It's stylish, has a big screen, and the zune software rocks.

30G Zune by Kerry L. Rose (Fayetteville GA) 5 Stars

I had one previously, but it died, and the new one is even better than the original model/ Price was great and ease of use was a cinch.

still serves me well. by saya (Miami) 4 Stars
October 19, 2009
i have had the zune 30gb since it was released and it has never given me a reason not to enjoy it. it syncs and plays all of my music and videos instantly. even though its a bit of an older device the screen and picture quality are beautiful and smooth to look at. for me its a great value since i still use it everyday. if i do plan on upgrading to a new mp3 player it will be the zune hd since i have no huge complaints about the zune 30. only con(reason i gave it 4 stars): -the "brick" design to it, lol. when i wanna carry a smaller handbag it may take up most of the space because of its width.

Great buy. by C. Gonzalez 4 Stars
October 13, 2009
I bought this almost 2 years ago and it's still going strong. I bought it for $150 at the time but I think the price is lower now. I go to sleep with it sometimes and end up smashing it but it has held up very well probably b/c I have the speck products case which was 30 but the case hasn't ripped or anything; this does make it look a lot more bulky but at the time, this mp3 player was the best deal for the best storage for my music. I'm glad I got it. I wish the zune software on my computer was a little faster loading but even itunes is a little slow; on the actual zune, it loads FAST. I'm glad I didn't go the ipod route as for the same storage space, etc. it would of cost more. Zune rocks and I'm glad I bought this; I still use it EVERY DAY! Even though it is a little bulky and everyone comments on its size (b/c of the case not the zune which is not that big), I'm going to stick with it; I think it will continue to last for a long time.
