I was browsing through the internet and i found some tips for the Zune that I think you all will find interesting. I will be posting up more tips soon. Here's one i found interesting.
How to use the Zune as a hard drive?
Turns out it's just a registry value to enable visibility in the shell. Cake! Hit the jump for the instructions.
1. Make sure your Zune is not plugged in and your Zune software isn't running 2. open up regedit by going to the start menu and selecting "run". Type regedt32 and hit "OK" 3. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Enum\USB\ 4. Search for "PortableDeviceNameSpace". This should be contained in the Vid_####&Pid_####\########_-_########_-_########_-_########\Device Parameters within the above ...\USB\ The ##'s listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Zune 5. Change the following values: * EnableLegacySupport to 1 * PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell to 0 * ShowInShell to 1 6. Plug in your Zune, and make sure the Zune Software starts up. 7. Hopefully at this point you can open up "My Computer" and browse your device, though it does NOT show up as a drive letter.
Right now I can access it both as a harddrive and sync through the Zune Software.

The Zune is a tremendous piece of equipment that is gaining momentum and giving the ipod a lot of competition since it came out. If you are a owner of a Zune you should be proud. However, it makes no sense having a Zune if you dont have any stuff in it like music, videos, movies etc. You want to make sure that you have all the latest stuff in it or else people will laugh at you or mock you. On this site I will place resources from time to time where you will be able to get things for your zune so check back often.
