Tips & Warnings
The conversion process can take awhile. If you want to avoid it entirely you can purchase movies from the Zune Marketplace, which will directly download the files onto your Zune player. If you're having trouble viewing a video on your Zune device, be sure that the file type is supported by Zune. Zune MP3 devices support WMV, MPEG-4 and H.264 files.
Never use free software to illegally download movies, music or other files. If you choose to pay for a membership at a Zune download site, make sure it's a secure website before you reveal your financial information or complete a transaction.
