As most people either own or focus on getting an iPod, Zune only has a small following crowd; therefore, the software fail to get the attention it deserves. Enter Zune 3.0, a software with Web 2.0 design and possibly the best flat look out there (IMO). When it comes to look and media centric function... iTunes metallic design can't even be in the same room. However, Zune fall down on performance. The software is sluggish and missing a lot of tag management features; That's where the powerful tagging, functions and speed of JRiver's MediaCenter comes in play. For people who never got to see what Zune 3.0 look like, here's a gallery:

There are a few great talented coders on this board who has put out some nice "Playing Now" and "Standard" skins. So, keep this option in mind as your next skinning project. It would be magical to have MediaCenter with the Zune look.
What you guys think?
