cyrian · 07-20-2007, 02:03 PM

lossless audio, more video codec support.

Dono · 07-21-2007, 11:27 PM

i really dont like the idea of games....maybe the battery will die in less than 3 hours..but want to see a clock

1ofamillion · 07-22-2007, 01:30 PM

text file support would be nice, and a clock.....and wi-fi to transfer with people around the world lol....

sonicgeek · 07-23-2007, 08:50 AM

3 features I really want: 1.If i just had this i would be happy,web browsing with flash/java support. 2.Internet Radio-MS could make a deal with the Destiny company, the one that invented Pirate Radio Broadcaster, and allow tuning into stations. 3:MSN messenger/Live compatibility, tie in everything (Zune,MSN,Live which already exists linked together by MS points and a .net account) Check your gamertag,friends, instant message, send email from your zune via wifi!Sweetness. Now try and tell me that wouldn't be cool

Stuart · 07-24-2007, 12:59 AM

1)The ability to access the internet
2)Sync files wirelessly
3)Update media data wirelessly

oh and uhh...

TETRIS!

cenadog · 07-24-2007, 02:38 PM

i want it to be able to go on vista and ps3

Phantom707 · 07-24-2007, 06:22 PM

The zune does work on Windows Vista.

Stuart · 07-25-2007, 05:58 AM

it does coz i have vista

psyckos · 07-26-2007, 09:01 AM

My requests are simple. At this time, I have only 2:

1. The ability to remove individual songs from the quick list instead of completely clearing it. We can add them one at a time...should be able to remove them one at a time as well.

2. Visualizations. I love the album art and all, but there needs to be an option to watch visualizations on the zune. A slideshow of the pictures you uploaded doesn't cut it.

Otherwise, it does what I want it to do.

ViscousStraw · 07-29-2007, 05:28 PM

clock and sleeper a definate since the ipod has both

noahb · 07-29-2007, 08:08 PM

i want to have the Wifi do more useful things like connect to the internet

trs21219 · 07-31-2007, 07:09 AM

i want for users to create their own skins for the look of the zune firmware.

also i want a clock, simple games( tetris), sleep timer, a locking device, download over wifi, delete an individual song from device, msn live/gamertag/.net passport integration with anyone you sync with, possible internet but idk how good it would be with such a small device with no keyboard.

topher93 · 08-02-2007, 11:19 AM

I want:
-A clock, obviously.
-The ability to make text files ON the Zune.
-The ability to load text or pdfs onto the Zune (not just pics of them).
-Games.
-Calculator.
-The ability to edit pics on the Zune.

edit:
-The ability to delete songs, pics, vids, whatever, ON the Zune, not have to hook it up to a computer to get rid of something.

edit 2:
They could make it:
Music
Videos
Pictures
Games
Text/PDF (including file editor)
Radio
Tools (like calculator, dictionary, translator.... maybe that's too much, haha)
Community
Settings

And in the bottom corner, they could have a clock.... or, really, anywhere on the screen.

ACE · 08-02-2007, 11:33 AM

gapless playback
compression

I think a clock and alarm, text support, and wireless syncing would be dumb.
a clock and alarm? Really? Why? Do you plan to sleep with your Zune?
Text support? As in be able to text? Do you realize how difficult that would be with the D-pad?
Wireless syncing? That's an energy guzzler if I ever heard one. Charging and syncing at teh same time makes much more sense.

imho...

CameleonMK · 08-02-2007, 11:49 AM

I agree with dominiej. Calculator,dictionary,text,translator? It's a mp3 player not a pda.

KYSL · 08-05-2007, 11:01 PM

Sleep timer would be such a GREAT feature. I avoid going to sleep with the music on because i wouldnt like to wake up to a dead battery which means a lllooooooooonnnngggggg and boring commute.

SooksVI · 08-08-2007, 04:38 PM

Better media support, and perhaps a built-in web browser with the ability to connect to wifi hotspots, dont know how it would work but it would be cool.

hallucinogen52 · 08-08-2007, 08:21 PM

I think the Zune needs to work with the Xbox360 more. The Sega Dreamcast had memory cards called VMU's and some games (Powerstone, Sonic Adventure) allowed you to play mini games on them. That was pretty neat. It doesn't have to store your game saves, but mini games that work with the game is cool.
With that being said, the stupid games that the Ipod has are pointless... so lets stay away from that stuff.

While it isn't hard to plug in my Zune via USB I wish I could do it wireless if I only wanted to put a couple songs on. Or to add a playlist from my computer. Plus it just sounds cool when your say you can connect your Zune and PC with no wires

I don't have too many gripes. I guess a clock would be okay, but I would never use it. Sleep timer sounds like a good idea. Please, no datebooks or anything like that.

As for the front screen, I like it. I like it simple.
