Why do my songs copy themselves

My Zune copies my songs. for example The new Green Day cd 21 Century Breakdown, I had 3 copies of song 1, 6 of song 16, and 3 of song 17. they were all in the same album creating one big list of copied songs.  It doesnt do this all of them but some, and i have to go in and delete and resync.

PS: I You have something to say bad about Green Day like they suck or older stuff is better, I have heard them all they are my favorite band.  I only used them cause it copied these songs most recent. So If your going to post just give me some tips

Thank You

re: Why do my songs copy themselves
Q2) Do you have the problem on your Zune device or in the Zune software (in your collection)?
[Note] If it's on your device, you probably need to erase all content ("Settings">"device">"SYNC OPTIONS") and resync. If it's in your collection, you probably need to use the media collection reset tool.

Q3) Are you using the latest firmware and the Zune software?
[Note] I saw lots of posts saying they had the problem before the update 3.0 or 2.5.

Q4) Do you have those files on an internal HDD, external HDD, or a network HDD?
[Note] If you are using an external HDD or a network HDD, check the drive letter or file paths, etc.
Also someone had the problem in their Zune collection because a utility program was making backup files on an external HDD, and the Zune software was monitoring them all.

re: Why do my songs copy themselves
Do you have any other media players on your computer?  Because mine did that but I figured it out because my mom (who has my old 1 GB iPod) was getting songs from the hardrive our computer and it for some reason copied the songs over to Zune.  I had to sit there and erase all the duplicates.  I don't know if this works for Windows Media Player or any others besides iTunes, but I hope this helps.

No. (Right now 52 of 148 videos on my Zune are movies, and I don't have any problems.)
