If you’ve been itching to check out all the new Zune 2.5 software improvements but haven’t had time to go through everything yourself, fear not. Jason Dunn over at Zune Thoughts has done all the heavy lifting for you and created a few videos detailing what’s new and exciting in the software upgrade. This first video gives an overview of most of the new features (minus The Social).

The second video goes specifically into the new features of The Social (which he wasn’t able to access in the first video)

That’s about it… just showing the audio and video out capability of the Zune 80 on the big screen.

What do you think?

There has been quite the absence of quality Zune 80 cases out there, but the flash Zunes ( Zune 4 and Zune 8 ) have had quite a few releases. Anyhow, I was quite excited to hear that Incipio was finally throwing down some Zune 80 cases. I have 3 Zune 80 and 3 Flash Zune cases to look at and I have recorded a couple videos to show them all to you!

Here are the cases I am taking a look at today:

• Butter Creme ORION Sleeve Case for Zune 4GB 8GB
• theDUKE Raw Leather Wallet Case for Microsoft Zune 4GB 8GB
• White Leather Flip Case for Microsoft Zune 4GB 8GB
• Black Leather Kickstand Case for Microsoft Zune 80GB
• Brown Leather Flip Case for Microsoft Zune 80GB
• VERTIGO Black Leather Holster Case for Microsoft Zune 80GB

Thanks to Generation Zune for sharing this video!

I just got word that the Zune Marketplace will be the home of some exclusive Heroes Videos soon!

“Exclusive Heroes Video Podcast Series to Debut on Zune Marketplace

Five Episodes to Feature “Heroes� Footage Set to Music from Original Television Soundtrack

In anticipation of the upcoming release of the “Heroesâ€� soundtrack album from NBC Universal, “Heroes” executive producer and director Allan Arkush has crafted five unique music video podcasts that will be exclusively available for free download on Zune Marketplace.  Each video short features exclusive edits of “Heroes” footage set to select tracks from the album.  Nada Surf’s “Weightless” provides the soundtrack to the first video, which debuts February 29 on Zune Marketplace and MSN (http://tv.msn.com).

Four additional music video podcasts will roll out on Zune Marketplace leading up to the album’s release on March 18.  The podcasts will feature the exclusive new releases “He’s Frankâ€� by Brighton Port Authority featuring Iggy Pop, “Not Now But Soonâ€� by Imogen Heap and “Keeping My Composureâ€� by The Chemical Brothers featuring Spank Rock, as well as “Man In The Long Black Coatâ€� by Bob Dylan. “Heroes” fans can collect all five and easily sync them to their Zune portable media player to watch on the go. 

“We are excited to partner with a great talent like Allan Arkush to bring the music of the soundtrack to life through creative edits of “Heroes” footage,” said Richard Winn, director of entertainment development for Zune.  “This podcast series is part of our plan to make more original content available via Zune Marketplace.â€�

Thanks Cesar for the above press release.

A recent survey may hint at Microsoft offering video downloads in the future… Well, duh… why wouldn’t they eventually do this? It only makes sense….
