  Everyone else making notes on the 4.2 release got stuck on the phone thing. Thanks for pointing out the Podcasts library! I’m posted a similar entry on my own blog, linking back here. Many thanks.

  Thanks Nick for the tip, added that info to the post.

  Well I had posted this before the “Zune Phone” info came out, it was a close thing though, otherwise I might have been more inclinded to focus on that, lol.

  It plays AVI’s, but it does not play ALL AVI’s :( Now I get to dig through my library and try and figure out which is which. Not really a complaint as I’ve dieing for them to put AVI compatibility in, but a twitch more would have been nice too. All that time to figure out which it will and which it wont THEN to convert all the ones it wont AGAIN *sigh* Guess you have to take the bad with the good sometimes ;)

  They’ve changed the default color of items with no album art in QuickPlay to black (used to be pink)… nicer overall, and better on the eyes.

  I do not think a worse piece of software could have been written. I have been unable to to update the zune software on my PC. As luck would have it the Zune was a gift so replaceing it with a unit that works and can be synchronized with and media player will be a welcome change.

  That’s a shame that you’ve had such a bad experience and I have to say yours is perhaps the first case I have heard where someone has such a bad time with the Zune software.

• Christian Dawson

  Will the update be able to put .avi files on the Zunes?

• http://mymicrosoftlife.com Gilly

  I dont know that, I will try and find out.

• http://mymicrosoftlife.com Gilly

  Turns out it does allow .avi files to be synced to the Zune, it will transcode it automatically.

• Agosto Nuñez

  I want the Podcast Library .ico file :-(
