Zune-好事多磨
我之前抱怨过Zune的配套软件居然有131M（iTune是65.6M)，没想到在花一天时间下载完之后，安装时又报这个错。我想，作为一个普通用户（比如我老婆），这种问题是肯定搞不定的。用户在没有享受之前就被折磨的不行了。

出错信息是：
No installation media

解决办法：
下载安装一个Windows Media Player 11 就可以解决问题。
接着就是这个错误：

难以使用的客户端软件:
还是费了两天，我才搞明白如何把硬盘里的MP3同步到ZUNE里面去，原来是要靠拖拽才可以，但除了拖拽，没有菜单，也没有提示，说明书里也没有，官方网站上也没以（至少我没找到）。

让Zune支持中文显示
因为用一个Zune还要写一篇博客，可见微软做这种数码产品的用户体验有多差。
Every good interface has its hidden features users have to find by themselves. A few of those appeared on the internet lately.
First Zune trick is about rebooting your Zune if it freezes for an unknown reason:
“To reboot your Zune, all you have to do is press and hold the Back button (the left-most button, the one with the arrow pointing left) while pressing upward on the control pad. It doesn't have to be a simultaneous press: you can first press the Back button then while holding that button, press and hold the control pad upward. You'll see the Zune raise the volume (or whatever pressing up will do in the mode that the Zune is in) then after a few seconds, it will reboot itself. The reboot process takes around 15 to 20 seconds.” [Zunethoughts]
Battery longevity is a major issue with those media players, especially now with video and pictures. Every trick you can have to save your battery power is important. The normally used method to turn of the Zune is to press the play/pause button. This is in fact more a “standby” mode with a turned off screen. It is very useful since your Zune can be turned on instantly and it knows what it was when turned off. If you really want to save as much battery power that you can and you don't care waiting a few more seconds at start-up, here as trick posted by Zunerama:
“Press and hold the down button on the D-pad, and at the same time press and hold the back button. In three seconds, the player will fully power down.
If you're not going to use the player for a few hours, or if it's just not important to you that it start at your most recent function, this method will keep your battery juiced for a much longer time.
When you do power the Zune back on, it'll display the Zune logo momentarily (about 4 seconds) and then take you to the main screen.”
Keep in mind that with this method, the Zune won't remember where it was and what was the last song played before the shut-down.
If you find other interesting tricks like those, let us know!
