Yes my Operation System is Windows XP Media Center 2005. So I am no need of the Zune.

As far as the wireless functionality goes, I think the only thing the Zune will do wirelessly is transfer songs between one zune and another. it then gives you 3 playbacks of the song transferred wirelessly before you have to acquire a necessary DRM license for it. This even applies to you simply recording your voice to an mp3, moving it to the zune and trasnferring it wireless to a friends zune. And since there won't be the required DRM for your voice file, he will get 3 plays and then the track expires. You can read this story confirming what I am saying above

I honestly think the zune is going to be one of the most limited functionality MP3 playing devices on the market. I would seriously consider something else like a creative labs, samsung or a cowan. You can transfer songs via drag and drop with those devices...so you don't need crap like iTunes.

Microsoft had to make an mp3 player eventually though, you never know it might actually slay the ipod? Actually unlikely if what pparks1 said is true.
