just for the sake of a quick reply, I'm gonna repost this question gave to the other Paralles post . . .

I'm looking into getting a MacBook and just got a Zune for my birthday. I realized this whole Parallels thing might be the exception, and thank god it's worked for some people!
Anyway, the main question is, will all of my music files have to be saved on the Windows XP side of things? Will I be able to access these files within OS X? Basically, If I decide to get a MacBook (instead of a PC) and use this Parallels thing just for my new Zune, I want to make sure it's worth it. If I can help it, I don't want to keep hopping back and forth from XP to OS X just for music.

Zune Software is not supported on Mac OS X, so you'll have to run Windows one way or another because currently there is no alternative to sync Zune.

Read more here: Zune on Mac and Linux
Also Windows Media DRM Zune uses, is not supported on Mac OS X. So you need Zune Software of Windows Media Player 11 to listen to the DRMed tracks from the Zune Marketplace.

If you have more questions, better post them in our forum.
