suppose i'm too late for the party, huh?  got a used zune for Christmas and i love it.  there was no manual or instructions, but somehow i figured out how to delete what i didn't want.  installed the Zune application on my computer and my Zune grabbed all the miscellaneous music i had there (which was pretty much fine)  now i've ripped some cds and was all excited about adding them....but alas, i haven't been able to figure it out.  found your wonderful forum and found this thread....yay! 

but....seems everything i click on is gone:

not found

Sorry, we can't find the page you're looking for. It might have been removed, its address might have changed, it might be temporarily inaccessible, or you might have mistyped the address.

am i overlooking another thread?  can someone direct me to a Zune for dummies?  or maybe give me some basic instructions?  thanks!!
