Not sure what exactly your situation is, ZuneChick. Try a couple things. First, make sure you restart the software on a weekly basis (around Tuesday, which is when new releases are announced on the main page). This ensures you are getting the most recent catalog each time. I've found that I am unable to download tracks w/ my subscription, but after restarting ZMP I can.

I hope that helps.

Sorry If I'm off topic here but since it's a post about the Marketplace I'll just ask my question if that's alright. What's up with new music releases on the Marketplace, it seems like I can never buy current tracks in the new releases section ever, what's the deal with that? anyone know or is it just my marketplace software?

Now I'm not asking for any kind of response or anything but if that rumorish thing about a big zune announcement on June 1st is true I think it would be a good way to get back at whoever leaked it to announce it on May 31st(tomorrow). This would prove the rumor false while simultaneously showing us fans that you're standing by it anyway. I swear I have no alterior motives behind wanting this announcement early ;)

thanks admin. Confirmed you are working on that. Now, anyone with a Zune that gets near this machine can test it please ?

Ah, I see.

Either way, looking amazing. Put one of those things in every Starbucks and watch your marketshare rise rise rise.

What was the design on the back of the Zune used in the on10.com video? Or was it just a symbol that the Surface Computer recognized and associated with that specific Zune?

Those points in the video should be taken as a potential, future-looking scenario. So I don't have anything specific to announce/confirm/deny at this time.

Having said that, the Surface team is working with the Zune team on potential points of integration.

I also saw the Zune syncing by just placing it down.

Can you confirm that there will be wireless downloading for the next firmware update? Or even in the future?

That seems to be how it's doing it in the video.

Okay MS...Surface is frickin cool.

It is probably way cooler on my home computer since my work computer sucks!

Was this the big engadget hub bub!

!!! I've been checking all day for the reaction to surface. I have to say that was quite anti-climactic.

Surface is awesome, and the video(s) even show dropping your zune on the Surface and easily trading photos and songs. very cool!
