I'd google for a converter. They seem to be pretty hard to find, but this trial can apparently do it: http://winsite.planetmirror.com/win9...rter_setup.exe

Is there a thread for help with WM Converter 2? I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong using it.
Thanks,

for youtube and many other video sites to zune i use vdownloader, found at vdownloader.es

just choose convert to ipod mp4, it will work with zune. the only complaint i have is that the latest version has poorer audio output quality than previous verions; although i have noticed an improvement in video quality.
