I found my old zune hd and I’ve been messing around with it. I connected to the internet and surprisingly:

The text doesn’t scale properly, which is because why on earth would any front end support 480×272. Makes me wonder if there’s a low res “reader mode” plugin/redirect I could get running.

Also the Zune software works on win11 which is crazy.

Back in the day I had win XP x64 professional and it refused to run on that. I’m guessing compatibility mode has gotten much better in the last 15 years.

Still miss the original interface with the simulated zune 30 buttons on the bottom.
