Default NO ZUNE MARKETPLACE

ok so i just bought a zune 4 gig a little while ago. i read everything on here and on zune.net, etc. and my software has NO zune marketplace. i know its supposed to be in the top by collection, Device, Social. but thats all thats there. And your supposed to get the zune pass in settings but thats not there either. so if you could help that would be nice. i live in Ft. McMurray, Alberta Canada if that makes a difference, im not sure.

The Zune Marketplace is only available in the U.S. which explains why you can't see it.

Workaround to enable Zune Marketplace in Zune software v2.5 for non-US users - istartedsomething
Try that.
If that doesn't work hopefully you haven't paid for the pass yet.

Thank you for the information. I was wondering why I never had any trouble accessing the Zune Marketplace even though I live in Canada and my Zune account even says I live in Canada. I already had my region set to the United States.

thanks for the comments. i think im just going to call in and ask them myself. and no, i havent paid for a zunepass because i have no marketplace, so it wont let me. I have points on my xbox and it doesnt let me use them (i think you can use those, but i guess i dont know because i cant buy anything). and whenever i go to zune.net, go to a song or cd and click buy, it takes me to "windows live shopping" to buy the cd online.

Yes, the Zune Marketplace uses Microsoft points just like the xBox.
