I've downloaded it but haven't installed it. Frankly, I've not seen much on YouTube that I would want to watch over and over on the Zune.

I downloaded and installed the ZuneIt plugin and tried it out on YouTube -- worked with no problems. Looks like this is going to be a keeper.

I tend to agree. Aside from the random movie trailer or vintage 80s toy commercial, there really isn't much on YouTube that I just have to carry with me...

Remember people that you can look up quite a selection of music videos on these websites.

This is actually quite useful to me, and I've added a few videos onto my Zune because of it. Anytime I need a quick pick-me-up, I'll watch the Crazy Frog Bros. :p

Also I've found a few FULL episodes of "Comedy Central Presents..." on there (Stephen Lynch, Dane Cook). Good stuff :)

Jerry I have not been able to make this work and I am interested in a couple videos on You Tube. Any help. Russ
