Instead of designing a new feature for the website how about adding internet surfing via wi fi on the device or enabling the Zune to be an external portable hard drive instead of having to edit the registry to get it to work.  The functionality is there why not enable it?  How about support for Audio books, it’s a pain to have to rename the genre to Podcast.  I think users would rather see this type of improvement than a new feature on the website.

Let’s take a vote Zune Community would you rather see a new feature on the website or additional functionality added to the Zune?

You can feel free to vote on whether my team should do a game on The Social or additional functionality in the Zune, but I don't work on that part of Zune, so you won't get me and my development team to change paths. Different teams have different goals (and skills...I'm not a hardware person!), and my job is The Social. 

I think that when your actively on the zune.net site there shoud be a way that other people know you are. like how myspace says when your online.

An idea?

I'd like to see a game on the Zune that resembles Audiosurf

This game takes any song on your computer and turns it into a virtual racing track!

It's really a great idea, but think of how successful it would be on the Zune, plus it only uses very few keys to play so making it Zune-compatible would be great!!!

Any questions, my email's NessDan@live.com

Please make a name that tune game like on the ipod or tetris

With Zune community I think it would be a good idea for internet access for the zune for Email and the Zune website. Still thinking how it could work Since it would take forever to type in an email address or something, but you could store an email in your device from your computer. All there would need is a wireless networking avail. for the Zune website you could check messages or possabily Download songs from the marketplace. Provided it would take a great deal of time to come up with it, but I like the idea I've discussed it with other friends of mine that own Zunes and they like it.

Games Such as Tetris, Hexic, Bejeweled, Packman, Pong,  you know the easy ones that use the right, left, up, and down feature and the center button. Obviously playing your music during the game is a plus.

Any and All feedback is appriciated! And/or email me @ kalibarr15@hotmail.com 

I'll try to logg on to here as much as possible!
