Inserting MP3 Files into Zen
It is very easy to insert MP3 songs into the Creative Zen. If you plugged it to a Window XP computer, it will detect your drive as a removable drive on the computer. You can insert your MP3 songs and videos into the removable drive. You do not need any special software or drivers. Unplugged the Zen and you are really to listen the music and watch the videos u just put in using your Window Explorer. If you are using an iPod, then you can only use iTunes for downloading of music and videos files. In addition, Samsung MP3 Players also need Samsung Media Studio for downloading of songs and videos.
