Ditto. All of the stuff I purchase from Zune Marketplace, I am fortunate enough to purchase in straight MP3-non-DRM'd form. No "renting" required

Also, I would love to buy music form my Zune but before I would even consider doing so, they would have to create a Zune based interface that didn't require any humbug typing at all. I don't think I could stomach purchasing music by using a virtual keyboard and scrolling with the d-pad... it was annoying enough entering in my name in all those old video games I played on my old console systems
