Default $5 for Zune Pass? [Friends Required]


Hey, I just had an idea. If you know two other Zune owners, you could totally pitch in $5 per month to get unlimited downloads with the Zune Pass!

It would have to be with people you can trust, and have the means to pony up the cash, but it works.

The Zune Pass allows for up to 3 computers to be assigned to it (and up to 3 Zune devices). Once a login is created for the Zune Pass, you can share the login and password. Download what you want....

I know this works 'cause....uh....I just know....

I have done this before, but I didn't pay anything for it . This works and is a great idea. I would recommend making a separate live id just for this, and using a paypal one time use card, so nobody can buy MS points on your card.

This is a brilliant idea but wouldn't everyone have to share 1 zune card?

Ooh nice idea. But the zune pass only works for 3 computers and 2 zunes if I'm not wrong. You and your 2 friends will be able to download music from their computer/zune marketplace. But only 2 of the 3 of your little "zunepass" crew will be able to put the music on their zunes....

NO Zune Card necessary.

That was true with the original Zune Software, but with the upgrade, it was bumped up to 3 and 3

I actually do this with my step sister. It is a great, and very cheap way to LOTS of music.

Great idea. I'd do this but all my friends have iPods and the DRM from the Marketplace probably doesn't work with them.

the only issue is that you have to keep paying each month to keep the songs. so in the long run....its not worth it.

Well, you could record your songs with Audacity.

There are also programs to strip the music of the DRM, I believe.
