		<description>Same here.  I&#039;m tired of booting up VMWare to load Windows to run the Zune software.

These are GREAT new additions to the Zune and looks like their development team is catching up fast with Apple&#039;s iPod offerings.

My other big request for the Zune...we&#039;ve heard time and again...get rid of the points system in the marketplace.  It&#039;s a barrier to sales.  I&#039;ve almost relinquished entirely to either buying DRM-free songs from iTunes or Amazon.com.  Not just fro the DRM-free but for the simple fact that the points system is completely archaic and un-user-friendly.  I want to be able to quickly click (impulse buy) without having to do the math in my head for what I will pay for my purchase.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s all well and good, but I just want to know when they will make Zune software compatible with OS X.</description>
