The FM tuner is robust with the integration of Radio Broadcast Data System technology.

Additionally, users can tag their favorite songs, when they hear them, and they will automatically move to a virtual cart within Zune Marketplace. Furthermore, consumers can have up to 50 preset FM radio stations available at the click of a finger.
Users have the luxury of listening to the favorite music and watching great videos, from the Zune (16GB). However, they now have the ability to play games on the third generation Zune (16GB).

Physically, the third generation Zunes are the same as their predecessors, which makes the unit functional with all of your old Zune accessories.

It does give the unit more of an elegant appeal; however, attracts fingerprints and scratches making it difficult to keep clean.

Another phenomenal platform is Zune Social; it is a social networking platform specifically for Zune owners / users.
