Well, I got a pair of Zune gift cards totalling $50 (can purchase up to 50 songs) for my birthday.

I'm trying to break out of my country/southern rock shell, so any suggestions would be great.  ;) 


PS, it will probably be awhile before I can download any songs.  I'm downloading an episode of Ghost Hunters  right now (mostly as an experiment to test the 80 GB Zune's video capability), and it's taking FOREVER (mostly has to do with the apartment's shitty internet connection)!  :censored:   I need a beer... anyone got any?  :-)


You can do what I do.  Check out the groups and singers on MySpace.  You can listen to 3-4 songs of most groups.  Almost every popular group has a page on there, and some put up thier songs from their current CDs.  There is also a way of downloading most songs that the artist has listed.(Free, I might add)  I listen mainly to country music, but have gotten tired of the same old crap played on the radio. So I started downloading unknow artists songs from myspace.


I'd love to be able to do that, but:

I have yet to figure out how to take songs from internet sources other than the Zune MarketPlace and put them on my Zune mp3 player.   :(   

Someone here gave me a link to be able to do that, but I lost it when Firefox started having issues and I had to clear everything out.  :bawl:

I use mozilla firefox and  the video download helper extension.  I just change the file type to .mp3 after downloading, and also save the fils as the artist and song name.

Okay, I'll give that a try.  Thanks.  :)

It sounds like the theme tune for "Fresh Prince of Bel Air."
