If you're like me, you know absolutely ZERO people who own a Zune. Unfortunately/fortunately, I use a Zune (and am loving it btw).

I'm wondering how many of you guys are in the same boat, and if there would be any interest in sharing your Zune tags? After all, the Zune social isn't very social when your friend list is empty!

I should be receiving my Zune from Amazon early next week (decided I needed to move on from my reliable-but-small 8GB Sansa player, and applied a certificate towards the 120GB Zune, scoring it for roughly $120), so I am curious: what does tag sharing do?

Yavin

Nothing special really, it's just for knowing the Zune handles (you will have to create a handle for yourself when setting up your Zune for the first time) so other DVDTalkers can add you on their Zune social friend list.

The only thing I hate about the Zune tag setup is that if you want to change yours after the fact it will cost MS Points (i.e. $$$).

That's all it does, huh? I thought it was more extensive, like allowing you to view another person's playlist and recommending music to them; oh well. When I get it set up, I'll toss my username up here.

Yavin

Well, yeah, actually. You will be able to see their playlist, most-played songs, favorite songs, etc ... all the same items that are on your own profile; and make comments on their profile as well.

Mine is JustSamDC. I think if you have a 360, the people in your friends list are automatically added to your zune social whether they have a Zune or not.

fumanstan

Yeah, mine's the same as my XBox Live account Fu Man Stan. I think I have some of you folks already.

Yavin

Boom, added all you of guys!

I believe we may have 25% to 35% of all Zune owners in this thread.

Sorry if this is off-topic, but I just got a Zune 120gb and I had a question. Is it possible to listen to your whole library sorted by album or artist? The only way I can get it to play my whole library is by doing shuffle all. I like shuffle, but when shuffle hits a song I like, I like to unshuffle and listen to the album or artist. I know they have an option to listen to the album, but I want a new playlist, not just one album. I don't want to constantly have to mess with it or add things to a playlist. If that's the only option, it's incredibly inconvenient while driving or jogging.

With the Zen that I've been using for years, it sorted the playlist by album. I think Ipods sort by artist after you unshuffle. When you unshuffle on the Zune, it sorts alphabetically by song title. I can't imagine any reason why anybody would want to listen to their whole library of songs alphabetically by song title except purely as a fun thing to do maybe once a year.

I am needing to pick up a portable unit soon and have been debating whether to get a classic iPod or a Zune.

Anyone have sites they would recommend for some good comparisons that aren't saturated with fanboys of either player?
