Comments on: Zune update: first impressions
Zune 2.5 has fixed the most obvious problems with the software, but the new social features are buggy and the app is still a resource-hog.

Let the debate begin: Was the iPhone more important than iTunes? Was anything bigger than Google finding a great business model? CNET offers its list of the 10 most important stories of the '00s.

- I respectfully disagree with Mr. Rosoff. Following the update, syncing is painfully slow, and nothing I do stops the player from syncing old stuff I removed ages ago. I've never used the Zune software for tag or playlist editing, because other software (MediaMonkey) is so much more nimble and powerful. I just want it to sync, and now they've crippled even that limited function by attempting to make the software more robust. For the first time, I'm ready to throw my Zune through a window and go back to my iRiver. Sheesh.
