Changes Coming For Microsoft's Zune

According to an article at PC Mag.com titled Microsoft's New Zunes Add 'Buy from FM' there are some big changes coming for microsofts's Zune.

On Sept. 16, Microsoft will begin offering a feature that will let users "tag" and download music they hear on its Zune MP3 player's built-in FM radio, the company said Monday. A giant 120-Gbyte offering, as well as a 16-Gbyte model, have also been added to the Zune family.

Zune Resources on the Web

I was recently surfing the web for something new to write about. And it dawned on me that I don't really have much posted about Microsofts Zune. To be truthful I don't really know that much about the Zune. So I thought I better get up to speed and see what kind of resources there are online for the Zune.

To start with, if you are like me and know almost next to nothing about the Zune, then you might want to start with Zune@wikipedia. Very informative and covers what I think are the basics with articles that allow you to compare the different media players and the online music stores.
