i like that you included the time so we can jump ahead to content we want to listen to first.  i plan to listen to the whole podcast though, of course!

I work in a retail store and the only way to get the Zune moving is for you guys to reduce the price. That will take a bite out of Apple but lower the pirce if you want to see your market share grow,

Linux Support?

How about going completely MP3/M4A for normal purchases? Amaxon's MP3 store eclipses Zune Marketplace.

You should buy the SanDisk portable media unit and Samsung buy the memory unit.

I would like to know if Zune is planning to apply the crossfade in the zune software and possibly the zune MP3. As an ex itunes user this crossfade feature stood out to me the most when I transitioned.

Why isn't their a section in the marketplace for all the freebies? Or am I just blind :D

Its a north American market product only and until its released overseas it will never compete with the ipod. The Zune is a good product hindered by a company lacking the guts to compete in the world market.

I know you usually look at comments, and I find that Great! So I thought I would just drop in and ask a question. Can you make it when picks and channels are updated that it doesn't give you back songs that you already have in your collection? Thanks and I know you'll pass it on to the team cause Zune is freaken cool like that!

Head over to Zune Marketplace and check out the Green Room podcast, an exclusive, inimate look at artists

Urr...

I still love video podcast.

Is it too much to make two version (Audio/Video)

?

I think Audio should be the main podcast, with videos being additional 'specials'. I consume all my podcasts whilst driving. If the video is of a specific feature I like to be near my PC to check the feature out

In regard to removing podcasts that haven't updated in a while, I think it would be better to make them a lower priority so they still show up but behind current ones.

can we get the podcast on itunes so that I can listen to it on my ipod.
