I suggest to sticky this thread! here are my suggests between zune and windows phone: see new apps like top app list and if u click u can see lot of new apps order lists by genre, date, price... see the download, install and sync status of an app see the apps installed in my phone and here about zune: In playlist view a now playng voice that easy help us manage playlists and now playng songs in playlist and now playng edit details voice for id3tags without go to collection Auto convert id3 tags to filename and viceversa Sync with a usb thumb drive (like media player) not only with microsoft devices and burner Save and read playlists in .m3u too that are universal without it's too complicate manage playlist between more softwares and devices Show duplicate files in a playlist and if there are in another playlist too

I want 1 system for organizing and playing my media on my PC,my Laptop,My tablet computer, my TV, My X-box, My Zune(which I havent gotten yet because im waiting for them to fix the ZunePC issue) If I want to watch a movie I should be able to just do that from any of my devices. If I want to see what movies I have in my collection..I should be able to do that from any of my devices, And it should look GOOD Right now there this HUGE list of programs for that and none do everything that it should do. You have Windows media center. Windows Media player. Zune for the PC. Im not sure what Xbox has. They need to concentrate on 1 Media Player and make that 1 Media player worth using. I don't see that happening anytime soon. Microsoft is out of touch with its users. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe Microsoft is hard at work on these issues as we speak. And maybe the Real Santa will come this year. But I doubt it. Agree 100% Zune has a fantastic 10foot display, doesn't support the codecs I need to play most of my content. Windows media center has a decent 10foot display, plays all my content, won't sync my phone. Windows media player plays all my conent, has DLNA, wont sync my phone and isn't a 10foot display. I'd like a player that supported directshow and mediaFoundation codecs, supported DLNA, has a nice 10foot display and synced my windows phone. plugin support would be nice, so i could slap it on an HTPC and get netflix (like you can in media center) and all my media in one place.

Is there (or are there plans for) DirectShow and MediaFoundation codec support? There are multiple Microsoft video players, which I would like to consolidate into one:- Windows Media Player supports DLNA and 3rd party codecs, but is not a good 10foot display and won't sync with my windows phone. Zune has a very nice 10foot display but wont play many of my video files and doesn't seem to support DLNA. Media Center supports 3rd party codecs and DLNA, but won't sync with my windows phone. It'd be nice if Zune would use the Media Foundation and DirectShow codecs for playing video, and for transcoding video to put on the Windows Phone. Lacking this support, it is next to useless because I can't play most of my videos on it and I can't put most of my videos on my phone. Ummmmm This isn't a market place content suggestion. I would like to play the content that I already own with Zune. Why did this get merged in?

can you make BEATLES available in Marketplace

I want 1 system for organizing and playing my media on my PC,my Laptop,My tablet computer, my TV, My X-box, My Zune(which I havent gotten yet because im waiting for them to fix the ZunePC issue)

If I want to watch a movie I should be able to just do that from any of my devices. If I want to see what movies I have in my collection..I should be able to do that from any of my devices,

And it should look GOOD

Right now there this HUGE list of programs for that and none do everything that it should do.

You have Windows media center.

Windows Media player.

Zune for the PC.

Im not sure what Xbox has.

They need to concentrate on 1 Media Player and make that 1 Media player worth using.

I don't see that happening anytime soon. Microsoft is out of touch with its users.

Maybe I'm wrong and maybe Microsoft is hard at work on these issues as we speak.

And maybe the Real Santa will come this year. But I doubt it.

Agree 100%

Zune has a fantastic 10foot display, doesn't support the codecs I need to play most of my content.

Windows media center has a decent 10foot display, plays all my content, won't sync my phone.

Windows media player plays all my conent, has DLNA, wont sync my phone and isn't a 10foot display.

I'd like a player that supported directshow and mediaFoundation codecs, supported DLNA, has a nice 10foot display and synced my windows phone. plugin support would be nice, so i could slap it on an HTPC and get netflix (like you can in media center) and all my media in one place.
