Quicklist is NOT the same thing as Now Playing!!! You can't pick individual songs to add to Now Playing. It adds the whole cd!! I want Quicklist back, plus I want to be able to make my own playlists on the Zune itself!

You guys are getting wicked good press from Brian Lam @ Gizmodo, etc... and well-deserved, too.

If he's getting Parallels just to run Zune, maybe it's a tip-off that you're missing a small but very influential chunk of the potential market by not supporting Mac.

But anyway... thanks for the FAQ. :)

If I download 10 tracks each month and then lose the drive where these tracks are stored, if I don't have a backup, can I go back and download the tracks again?

It would double usability if you could "buy" a track already in your collection. At least if you use the Pass to experiment with new music, you'd probably want to use the credits to buy music you've already listened to and know you like and want to keep. Now, you have to go to marketplace, search, and buy.

Espi sez: "do the 10 tracks have to be subscription tracks, or can I get any 10 from the whole marketplace?" - you can get tracks that are available for subscription, or for purchase only. However, tracks that are "album only" meaning that you need to buy the whole album, won't be available as part of your 10.

Binary: free trial won't give you 10 tracks.

Hey i was wondering...if I get the free trial of the Zune Pass do I still get to get those free 10 tracks?

Oh, one more question Cesar: do the 10 tracks have to be subscription tracks, or can I get any 10 from the whole marketplace?

@ Kregger

Go to your account details page at Zune.net. All your details are in there.

Man, when I renew my pass I am totally downloading some Boston tracks.
