Contrary to this being posted as "new" today, this is still just the same release that came out back in November. Same version, same digital signature, etc. If you want the latest version of the Zune software you have to get the patch to 4.7.1407 from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2498092

I don't have a portable Zune player , but I love this software it has a excellent, album art cover finder - editor- ripper,, best in it's class as far as I'm concerned, non bloat , just very well done period, It's like the developers gave it some thought!, It has become my default player period.

download it 5 star all the way...........

Awesome software, really love the interface. Only two major downsides and what's keeping me from using the software is poor support for audio and video formats and when moving the player from one monitor to another the playing video will restart.

Excellent program from MS.

Great for Music, ripping, podcasts and a fantastic Marketplace for Podcasts...This UI is now the defacto standard for all MS apps coming out next..

Goodbye to spreadsheet UI and memory hog ITunes crap...

Tried this again. Nice interface and very usable but the memory resources are on par with iTunes > 120 megs to plays songs minimized. Nope, going back to aimp2 or xmplay.

I'll have my HD as soon as UPS delivers it. But, to be prepared, I downloaded this software.

It's not necessarily bloated. The setup package is a ZIP file that breaks down into many smaller programs. There are separate 32 and 64 bit setup packages in English, French, and Spanish. There's also a setup for .NET and numerous Windows updates, necessary to run the software. There's also a firmware upgrade for the device.

I must add that I have been scouring the Internet for days to find a comprehensive, and not superficial review. I have yet to find one that told me other than the bare essentials that you can read in an ad on Best Buy or Amazon. How does the web browser work? What can you do with it? How easy it is to connect to your home wireless network? Can you synch or stream music from your home PC? What is the quality of reception of the HD radio?

In response to all these reviewers, I don't really care about subscribing to some software store, as I already own 124 gig of music. I'm not looking for games or apps. I am buying the player to play the music I already own. I don't really care about the UI, as I tend to pick out some music, put the player in my pocket, and listen to the music. I don't care about constantly diddling with a UI or impressing other people with it.

3.0 introduced a lot of new kick a** features...and was little sluggish...3.1 smoothes that out....Zune feels so smooth....

Good job Zune team...
