How do you think my computer will be able to handle to software, it handles iTunes ok, I guess.


Also, I dont know the first thing about riping dvds, do I just drag and drop, or will I need a particular software?
Could I use the Zune software to sync it or would I need to rip it with a certain software, then like re-code it or somthing and then sync it with the Zune software?

Thanks,

Your computer should do OK when using the software, you cannot just drag and drop music files to the zune. you have to open up the Zune software and add them that way. It is not that hard to use, and when you install the Zune software you can have it automatically sync (add all your music files to the Zune device.) So any songs I had in iTunes automatically were added to the zune, i didnt have to do anything. And to answer your question about DVD's; You will have to use a program to rip the DVD to your computer. Then from there you can add it to the Zune software. Depending on the file format that it is the Zune software will auto-convert it and sync it to your Zune. I would check around on the forums to see exactly what formats you can put on your Zune so it will auto convert it. I hope this could answer your questions.
