In this video I delve into the Video section of the Zune Marketplace, and realize how stupidly expensive some of the movies are ($19.99 USD for an HD movie to purchase - really?). I also talk about some of the new features of the Zune 4.0 software, including the mini player mode. The software videos were shot before the Zune HD Deep Dive videos.</p><p><em>Jason Dunn owns and operates <a href="http://www.thoughtsmedia.com/" target="_blank">Thoughts Media Inc.</a>, a company dedicated to creating the best in online communities.
