About

This is where it all happens…the inside story on all things Zune.

The Zune software is the digital media hub on your PC where you play and manage your music and video collection, shop and download from the online Zune Marketplace, sync your collection to your Zune devices, and interact with others at the Zune Social. You’ll need to install and use the Zune software to do all of these things. 

The Zune software makes it easy and fun for you to connect, discover, and enjoy new entertainment. Get the most out of it with these features:
