Thanks for the music Cesar. Most of the artists I don't recognize, but I'll check them out.

Adam K

Thanks for indulging me. I'm really feelin these NMF posts. Could you find some way to throw 'em up with Marketplace content/playlists?

Lil Wayne is one of the few Southern rappers I actually like these days. His mixtapes are crazy, and his wordplay is untouchable. Thanks for throwing that up (oh, and I might be going to the Smashing Pumpkins concert sometime soon!)

No comments? Weird, i thought there would atleast be one. I'll download the music later today. New music is always welcome.

Still no comments? I checked out Target to see if they had the Blue Zune, all there was was Red, Black, Brown, and White. Outta luck i guess

ace

@ Zoa 342. It seems the "blue" Zune was really just a black one shot in an odd way. From the angle used, the blue double shot is really pronounced, making it whole thing look blue. That's the official story so far, anyway.

If it is true, I think I'd be pretty dissapointed. They should be working on things like firmware updates and Zune 2.0, not another colour.

Cesar, any tips about what we can expect this week? Any announcements about upcoming announcements? lol

yes, i would also like some...SOME! info on updates for/about the zune devices.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually getting to the point where I 'need' an MP3 player.  I've put it off for years, but the time has come.

I'd love nothing more than to check out the 80gb classic and an 80gb zune (or whatever MS has up their sleeves) at a Best Buy or something.  But if I don't hear something by the end of Sept., then I'll likely just go with the classic.

Gah! Zune Scene is offline. Anyone else having this problem?

Cesar:

You might want to audit your collection of links under the "Cool Zune Kids" section of your page.

Many of those links are either down or now point to sites that have nothing to do with the Zune, or haven't been updated in a very long time.

Ricardo Dawkins

yeah..update the site..man..

ZuneToday

yes, looks like zuney folded and is now a parked page, ditto zunerealm. we will miss them.

the zune blogs need something to blog about. give us some news onthe new Zunes!

what about spiral frog and the Zune?

Zoa 342

Update please!!!!!!!

Kris

I would definitely appreciate an update on some upcoming features (if any are even in the pipeline as we've been kept completly in the dark about _everything_).

Also, I purchased Linkin Park's single "What I've Done" and now it no longer exists on the Zune Marketplace and I cannot play it on my new computer. What gives? This happened once when I used Napster and, for some reason, Zune doesn't appear to have any e-mail support.
