Zune is Microsoft’s answer to the iPod. As well as playing and organising your songs and videos, it comes with Wi-Fi capability, allowing you to stream content and swap files with other users. Swapping music is limited to being able to send and receive “promotional copies of songs, albums, and playlists”, whatever that means. UPDATE: Apparently it means that you can keep any songs sent to you for 3 days (or 3 plays - whichever is shorter)
