Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Microsoft, Music, Portable Audio / Video

Zune Audible

Hey, if the news from earlier didn’t suit your fancy because you just aren’t into e-books, then maybe you prefer your books in audio form. If you do, you’re in luck if you are a owner.

While we do not have an exact date as to when the device will be officially AudibleReady, we expect to make the Zune compatible before years end. Our Device Center on our website will be updated upon the Zune becoming compatible, so please be sure to check there periodically.

Not too bad. With this, plus games coming soon as well, the Zune is shaping up quite nicely when compared to the , wouldn’t you say?

Bleeding Edge 060: Zune to Zune Music Transfers

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, Features, Microsoft, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts, Wireless / WiFi


One of the big selling points that Microsoft is pushing with the Zune is the way that it can easily transfer music from one Zune device to another. Think about it - if you have a friend who owns a Zune, or if you happen to bump into someone on the subway who happens to be bumping one, you can quickly send over your favorite Fergie track in just a few seconds. Of course, you would actually have to find someone who owns a Zune first, and we have yet to meet anyone who even knows what a Zune is. Nevertheless, check out the video to see the admittedly slick Zune-to-Zune song transfers in action.
