Zune Device Features Wish List
Here are my wish list items as well as others have suggested.
  • A way to organize videos into categories such as TV Shows, Movies, Music Videos, etc…
  • Games (such as Snake, Pong, Tetris, Bejeweled, etc…)
  • Ability to use Zune as an external drive
  • Fixing the bug in the “Social” menu, so you can actually turn on wireless via that menu.
  • East Asian Language support (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc…)
  • DivX support a must
  • Better organization for pictures
  • Lyrics -the ability to flip the album art to view the songs lyrics (as well as having an automatic lyric download service)
- Julian

re: Zune Device Features Wish List

I'd love to have the ability to share videos via the Social functionality for my feature list wish.

If as a minimum I have a personal desire for it. I'd love to be able to share maybe a 2-3 min. viral video with friends. I belong to a cancer support community and spreading the word is important. Being able to 'push' something like that would be cool. Then you could share it with whomever was interested. Granted the community of Zunists is smaller than 'other' types of devices, but that'll change!

re: Zune Device Features Wish List

For what it's worth I second this great wish list! Especially the external drive. I want an easy way to add or nuke individual files - like on my old iRiver MP3 player.

Lyrics support and the ability to use the Zune as an external hard drive, is a must.

re: Zune Device Features Wish List
A few more ideas I had after seeing some questions people are having on the forums.
  • The ability to rotate photos in both the Zune device and software.
  • Smart playlists in the Zune device. Such as being able to make a quicklist of your top rated songs, unlistened music, etc...
  • Ability to stream an online radio station to you Zune via wifi. Currently I use the Shoutcast internet radio feature in Winamp to listen to internet radio, but being to stream that directly to my Zune to listen to around my apartment would be awesome.

re: Zune Device Features Wish List

Along with everything listed in the first post, I'd like to see...

 

-A way to sort videos would be great.  I have a lot of music videos that don't show up under the Music Video menu, because I downloaded them from google video.  A way to be able to put them in that menu would be great. 

-Also along the lines of video, maybe customizable menus?  So people could create their own menus for things like TV shows or home videos or whatnot.

-Games confirmed for the Zune 30.  They are coming out, there are legit videos showing that, but they don't mention anything about the first gen Zune.  I'd like to know for sure if they will be avaliable for the 30.

-This is the device forum, but I'll throw this in as well: better editing abilities for music.  Being able to choose the year something was published, etc.

-Zune Card on the Zune, for increased Social capabilities.

I agree tenfold. Microsoft, are you listening? This is an organized manner of a wishlist in which mostly everyone agrees with. Listen Microsoft Listen! Give us customer satisfaction. And plz don't make us buy another Zune to get it.

  • Ability to use Zune as an external drive (you shoulda bought an iRiver it's made by MS and flies under the PFS banner)
  • Fixing the bug in the “Social” menu, so you can actually turn on wireless via that menu.

re: Zune Device Features Wish List

I agree with a sorting videos tab, sounds smart, but a way to rotate photos?! Would it be so difficult to just rotate your zune? I mean the main function of it is to listen to music, pictures is more of a luxury at this point and you  know how the saying goes "for those who are unhappy with what they have, it will get taken away"

Also, I definitely support the language expansion on the zune. That is a bright idea Idea [I]

I don't care for lyrics and I think it would take pointless space anyway so this function should not be mandatory.
