Zune 2: Wow
Zune 1 was a standard V1 offering: clunky hardware, software that was a bloated reskin of Windows Media Player 11. I understand.
Zune 2 is a total revamp. Custom software written on the UI framework that powers Windows Media Center. It looks amazing. And, for a subscription music fiend like me... it rocks to have all this music at your fingertips. (Click the thumbnail to get a bigger version.)

Now playing mode (warning: full screen on a pretty big monitor)
