Zune, baby, Zune

Okay, so I decided to feed the Microsoft monster by buying a Zune, but it was only because it has the amazing capability to receive FM radio transmissions!

It's taking me WAY too long to upload all of my cds, but I think the reward will be totally worth it.

Will probably want to get different headphones, and need to get an ac adaptor...so I can charge it while in Israel...and New Orleans.

I've only filled up 7% of it's capacity, and I'm less than 1/4 through my cd collection. Hooray for 30MB!

1.2 gigawats.

Did not know it had a FM receiver, that's awesome.

For real. I'm going to Circuit City this afternoon to get a bunch of accessories. Don't want any sludge to gunk it up while I'm doing dirty work.

Still loading music. A little confused about whether I should have it in MP3 format or Windows Media, or Windows Media Lossless...have no idea what the difference is.

usually - the bigger the file size, the better the sound quality because the file is holding more information or data.

Maybe load the same song 3 or 4 times and try a different format for the song and see which ones yr ears like the best...

interesting. might try that after I get the whole collection loaded once.

today it seems to be going faster than yesterday.

Going to buy accessories this afternoon. All this technology nonsense really adds up in the end. So much for saving for a car or new sewer line!
