Hey kids, it's the moment you have waited at least 7 days for, another brilliant installment of the Zune Insider podcast! In this amazing episode we have singer/songwriter Molly McCue performing LIVE in the studio! We also chat about the latest wave of Zune HD announcements, discuss the new gaming playlist contest, tell whimsical stories about the origins of some sweet Zune tags from our listeners, and as always, we have a more than random chat about music and video. So much action, it's almost hard to type! Go get it here or listen now from the Zune Insider Podcast page at Zune.net.

Hey does the  zunehd have a camera? It would be awesome

Best Podcast EVER!! lol...

Always look forward to hearing what you guys have to say and the guests are awesome.

Pre-ordered the platinum! Wanted a red one, but, hey Newegg.com, no tax, free shipping, what can I say?

Great music Molly!  Jessica and Matt - as always thanks for another great podcast.  Just curious what happended to the Podcast "heading" on the HD menu; I don't see it.

Hey Matt and Jessica, I have a question for the next podcast.. How does the Zune Hd or Zune hardware get developed?  does someone on the zune team sit around with a pile of screens, cpu's etc and throw them together for Prototype models? or do you send the specs off to where ever  Zunes are made?

But when does the Zune HD come out in Canada, & other countries...?

I am getting the Zune HD in platinum also.

Next week on Sunday at Best Buy (Sunday, August 23th), there's a store event and I am pre-ordering that day, I am so excited!

Thank you Microsoft and all its employees Jessica Zahn and Matt Akers included for the very hard work in  order to give us the pleasure of enjoying the Zune, perhaps one of the greatest MP3 player in the market today.

Jessica & Matt, just exactly does New Tuesday content appear on Zune Marketplace? Back in the day I would wait at Tower Records to buy music at midnight on Tuesday morning but I do not see new content on marketplace at midnight (Pacific).

I miss webtalkrob & cesarisok any way we can get them back as guests for an episode.

AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME!

I'm going to print out a shirt that says: "My Zunetag was explained on Zune Insider Podcast and all I got was a 'sweet' from skipdeez".

This is what I call "social". Thank you so much guys.

great music today.  i like what i hear about the presale of the hd...in the shopping cart already.  

have you thought of doing a monthly video edition of the podcast...sure would be nice to see what you're talking about sometimes.

steve corey...

...indeed, that will be awesome to have a video podcast made by Jessica and Matt.

I love your idea scorey00 !

Hear hear for video podcast1

You said Microsoft charges for tag changes. Why not make it free if you have the same name for over a year?

Hi i was wondering if there was a way i could get the Zune original option if i preordered?

I would love to put a design on the back of my zune but if i preorder is it too late?  

Can i upgrade to a zune original art on the back of my preordered zune? or does the service only go out to the people who didn't want to pre-order it.  

I am wondering if i can preorder a zune with the ability to have the Zune Original engraving option???

you guys said that they would be bringing back the EQ on the zunes but can you also ring back the quicklist. it ws so much better than the now playing list since the now playing list always clears once you change what you were listening to. like for the gym i like ot make my own playlist right there and then and keep em for a while but i cant do that with the now playing list BRING THE QUICKLIST BACK!

Is it really true that the Zune HD will not be launching in Canada?

LOL, I can't believe you guys mentioned me on the podcast. That's AWESOME! Now I need to send Matt and Jessica some sweet tunes...

@Allure Extract - the podcast menu appears when you put podcasts on the device; I think that's the same as the current devices.

@Ryan, @DryEdibleFood: No, you can't - there isn't a preorder option with Zune Originals
