The Corso team is all about making sure that your data never goes away.
|
|
We've worked hard making the industry's only free and open-source tool for backing up Microsoft 365 data.
|
|
And that's why we're not letting anything from Microsoft die, certainly not 2006's best personal media player, the Zune.
|
|
|
|
Ummm… look, this all made sense when I bought the Zune and found someone to refurbish it. Just play along with me here, okay?

## A technology whose time has come
|
|
|
|
In many ways, the Zune was ahead of its time. It could stream music over WiFi, and share your own media with other
|
|
Zunes on the local network.
|
|
<!-- vale proselint.Cliches = NO -->
|
|
It was also, to the best of my knowledge, the first personal media player to come in brown. This Zune isn't brown, it's black,
|
|
but they did make brown ones.

|

*Look at that, brown. What a time to be alive.*
|
|
|
|
And not only can you load a Zune with MP3 or WMA files, but it's also got an FM radio.
|
|
|
|

|
|
*FM radio, certainly nothing will replace that!*
|
|
|
|
This is a good thing since you'll have to run Windows Vista or earlier to load any media files onto the actual player.
|
|
|
|
## All right Nica, I can't possibly get more excited, how can I win this prize?
|
|
|
|
It will take you about 15 minutes (or less!). Just:
|
|
|
|
* [Give Corso a try](https://corsobackup.io/docs/quickstart/)
|
|
* Fill out the [Corso feedback form](https://forms.microsoft.com/r/mRVNKqeKDp)
|
|
|
|
That's it! If you do that I will hold a drawing in a few weeks, and send the lucky winner the working Zune that
|
|
I have on my desk at this moment.
