Book Reviews of Zune For Dummies
Book Review: Misleading book. Only for Zune 4, 8, 30g
Summary: 1 Stars
I own the Zune 80gb, Zune 120gb and the IPod 160gb for various professional reasons. I truly love the Zune more than my IPod. I wanted this book to help me understand the little secrets for loading, sorting and organizing my music. The descriptions within the Amazon Zune for Dummies are totally generic as to which Zune devices they apply for, and the Amazon descriptions do not state which Zune this book even applies to. Therefore, the authors make more money selling the book to the Zune 80gb and the Zune 120gb users who cannot use this book at all. Once I received this book, all the diagrams and instructions are specifically for the Zune 4, Zune 8 and the Zune 30. Therefore, this book is of ABSOLUTELY NO USE for Zune 80gb and Zune 120gb users. The software for the 80gb and 120gb is totally different than the 30gb software; and SOFTWARE IS WHAT THE MP3 PLAYERS ARE ALL ABOUT!!! Therefore, all the software instructions within this book are not close to being applicable to your Zune 80gb or Zune 120gb. The diagrams supporting the text instructions are for the Zune 30, thus the command pad instructions for using the input & output holes & ports described within the book are not for the Zune 80gb or the Zune 120gb. This book's command pad instruction set for the music commands do not even apply to the Zune 80gb or the Zune 120gb.
I say, get the Zune 80gb or Zune 120gb and enjoy the MP3 or MP4 or FM Tuner or your pod cast lifestyle, just avoid this book. By the way, the Microsoft Zune is so much better than the Apple IPod in so many ways, like organizing your music directories and music files your way for your artists and songs, and not dealing with the Apple ITunes DRM protection software that totally limits where your songs can be copied to.
