Lost Your Preloaded Zune Content? Microsoft Now Offering it for Download
"One of the less obvious facts about the Zune is that as soon as you turn on the device, you have an abundance of quality content of both music and videos preloaded onto the device so you can literally start enjoying the experience from the first hands-on. On the other hand compare that to the “don’t steal music” sticker you have to peel off the iPod - which is like those “shoplifting is an offense” signs, makes you feel pretty guilty even if you have good intentions. Of course, to enjoy these preloaded content it would have to mean you first have to own a Zune, right? Not quite! You see, Microsoft today has made available the entire preloaded contents pack downloadable (ZIP) from Microsoft’s servers with no strings attached."
If you've deleted the pre-loaded content off your Zune, but were wishing you had kept some of it, here's your chance to get it back: download this 410 MB ZIP file that has all the goodies. A full list of the content is after the break.
