There's not much to say here, because according to Zune Insider there are no new features added to the Zune desktop software, just more "performance enhancements around set-up, sync and as always general reliability". I was really hoping we'd see some improvements in the way of meta-data handling (their current system is what's causing some people problems with albums not being read properly).

So basically, if you fire up the Zune desktop software today, you should be notified about the new 2.3 update. Myself, I'd report first-hand on any changed, but my Vista-based machine that's running the Zune software is completely trashed from a software perspective - I updated the system BIOS and nVIDIA nFORCE drivers and now Vista won't boot. <sigh>

There is a complete list of the fixes in the Zune.net forums here:

In short, the metadata fixes that you're looking for may just be in there, Jason. Just scanning over the list, I saw potential fixes for just about all the issues I've seen. Of course, I still need to verify that when I get home

Seems like reasonable turnaround for that volume of fixes, considering we also had a lot of holiday time since launch. Let's hope that they can get to some feature work for the next update.

Didn't have to connect a Zune or fire up the software. The update offer was sitting in Windows Update for me when I got home. Mine is set to download stuff but let me decide when to install it.

Changes look great...I plan to try and fix my main PC this weekend and hopefully I can test the new update on there and see if it fixes my issues.

Downloading now. For some reason it didn't show up automatically, so I had to go out to Windows Update to get it. Oh well - same net result!
