If you haven’t seen the news Zune 30s are bricking all over the world today. I unfortunately was hit by this flaw in the Zune device too. Thanks to my buddy TagGerr a quick case cracking and battery unplugging later and my Zune was back to rocking some All That Remains for my listening pleasure.

Thanks TagGerr!

Update: Looks like Microsoft is aware of the problem and working on a fix.

I am not sure how they plan to fix bricked Zunes already. Unless their answer is wait til your battery dies and try again.

Zune Problems

Looks like Microsoft and the Zune Team may be having problems with their servers again. I am not able to download any music, while getting errors of a “Firewall” issue. Great error as I have no firewall in place, and I can touch all of their servers except the DRM one.

Guess that just details for us how well DRM works. Oh well, sit and wait.
