Hello,
I have bought Music from Zune before, but I did so using the Zune Software on the PC. There you get an MP3 file and you can of course do what you want with it including syncing it to a WP7.
I am also aware that you cannot redownload DRM free MP3s so you have to keep your copy safe.
How does this work when you buy Music directly on the phone?
Is there any way to get the files on your PC later so that you can play them on the PC? Does the Zune software allow you to copy music from your phone to your PC?
If so, does this affect the quality? I belive that Zune offer 320kbps files, will those files be downloaded to my phone?
You can simply plugin your device into your PC and sync the music you downloaded with it with Zune. Dunno if it happens automatically, but you can simply right click the file and then choose "copy to my collection". I have two files here that I downloaded directly with the device and then synched it to my PC. Both have a 256kBit bitrate.
U can also use WiFi sync by enabling it in the options in Zune.
Unfortunately, Zune suffers from the same memory leak that plagued WMP, my advice is make CD copies of your music. A plus is when I download from Zune, a copy automatically goes to Windows Media Player on the PC.

Thanks it worked as expected and there was no quality change (320kbps on PC).

Hi guys. I am running the Zune software but it will not recognize the MP3s that are above 128kbps MP3 quality. What do I do? Most of my music files are between 192 - 320 kbps. Anyway to fix the software or at least move the files onto my phone other than the Zune software.

I had a very similar problem to this earlier today, what fixed it for me, was instead of letting the Zune software find all my music automatically, I dragged the entire my music folder directly onto the zune software, amazingly it found all of my files then.
Dragged it into what part of the Zune? I have tried dragging and I am not sure where to drag it into.
i never had any problem with any mp3 file
i keep em in an extra folder
added the folder to the zune libary in settings....
from time update the information with zune social tagger
Here is my problem: I am trying to add some WAV files(lossless audio setting) to Zune via a direct copy of the files from an SD card to my PC. The audio files are from a CD that I own and ripped in that particular format. I have instructed Zune to look to a specific folder on the PC for music(the one that contains all of my audio files I would like to transfer to my WP7 device). Zune doesn't see these newly added files(older music files are there as well) and I am at a dead end in what to do to get them onto my phone. Any help is greatly appreciated. FYI-when I try to "Play with Zune" from a right click on the mouse, they won't play in Zune. When I try the same thing with WMP, it plays in WMP...go figure! I would just love to be able to drag and drop to add files to my Focus! Help?!

I would say, Zune doesn't support .wav extension. I recommend to convert it to .mp4 or .wma. Recommend to use some pro editor like Goldwave. Depend on you, but yeah, Zune does not support .wav
I just figured that out after staring at the file association page in the Zune setting. They need to support their own files!

Not a completely bad thing. WMA lossless does sound pretty darn good, sadly though I don't think any "Phone" has the sound processing to let the files sound their best. If you want some damn good audio quality, the Zune HD was pretty much king as far as a SMP.
Hi
I learnt that Mango supports the wma lossless as mentioned in the thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1221284&highlight=lossless
Is that true? Anyone tried?
My act was to drag converted wma lossless with mass storage enabler before mango. However the prob was the tags were wiped off
Would be great if Zune 4.8 supports wma ll
let me explain the situation a bit:
for a few days now i'm playing with DFT rom on my omnia and one of the good things is, that i now can use a browser with a download-manager (Opera Mobile)..
so i just made up a quick web server on my PC, hooked up folders with mp3s and navigated on it using Opera on my phone..
question is: after i download a .mp3 file off that server, Opera asks me where to put it; i select 'Music' folder and (to-check) with a root-explorer i find my downloaded .mp3 file under ./my documents/my music .. but how do i manage Zune to recognize the file and add to its library? where to put the file?
oh and sorry if it's already been answered but i did not find any useable information..
Zune randomly renames your mp3s when it adds to your phone. The problem you are running into is you can't do what you are wanting to do and have Zune read the file. The file system doesn't work that way. (At least to my knowledge.)
Why not just add the mp3's on your pc through zune so that it syncs everything?
Zune not only renames files when it syncs them to the phone, it also adds them to a database (this is the important thing). Just putting the media file into the correct folder (\My Documents\Zune\Content\...) doesn't work anyhow; the phone's media player won't know the file is there because it won't be in the database.
Thanks for the answers.. Maybe a homebrew music player will solve this in future..

Hi,
is it possible to transfer the music downloaded from easyRing&Tune to make it visible to zune?
Sadly, no. Adding music to the Zune player on the phone requires adding it to a database that's in the phone. The Zune software can do that, and there is a way to do it on the phone directly (Marketplace on the phone can do it too), but nobody has found the API for doing it from an app.

Hi, I have been a lifelong Apple user and recently decided to switch to Android as I pre-ordered the new Samsung Galaxy S10. I am wondering how I can transfer my iTunes Library to Android and have looked on the internet on how to do this.
However, most tutorials only show how you can transfer music which you bought in iTunes to Google Play Music. What I like to know is how I can transfer my music in iTunes (which I downloaded from Youtube in mp3 formats and then manually uploaded to iTunes) to an Android music app such as Musicolet. I like to have the same playlists as in my iTunes, and I have all the music files on my computer. Doing this manually would take ages as I have almost 4000 songs. Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

The simplest way is just to copy .mp3 files and playlists directly into /mnt/sdcard/Music and any Android music player should be able to read these files
AirMore
Just look for the directy files of your downloaded music then use this app called AirMore to wirelessly transfer them on your Phone. Using this tool will allow you to selectively choose the files you wish to transfer from PC to your phone and vice versa.
You have all the mp3 files. You can literally connect the S10 to your computer, navigate to the file directory (like how you put a USB in a computer and see all the files), make a folder called music, and drag all the mp3 files to the folder. This is how i've always done it. Every samsung galaxy device has a preinstalled samsung music application, where it allows you to play music. It will automatically pick up all the mp3 files and you will be able to listen to it.
Hello,
The best and simple way is to transfer your music files from PC to Android. To do this you have to just copy iTunes music files to media folder and connect your PC to Android by using USB cable.
However, there are many other different methods which you can get in this article transfer iTunes music to Android phone.
Create a new folder on your desktop.
Copy the music files to transfer into the new folder.
Connect your Samsung to your computer with a USB cable. You may need to adjust your phone settings to transfer files via USB.
