Zune 4.0 Software Doesn't Include Zune HD Drivers

This is an odd one. I downloaded and installed Zune 4.0 software today. I proceeded to connect the Zune HD, but it would not appear in the Zune software. I had to wait for Vista to install a driver for the Zune? Call me crazy, but shouldn't that have been installed when I downloaded 4.0? Finally got it connected after about 15-20 minutes of software updates.

I updated the software on my player too (Zune 80). Not sure what the changes were though. Going through the marketplace on the new software is painfully slow. Not sure if their servers are being hit or if it's just the software wasn't optimized.

Could be both.

I've had minimal experience using the 3.0 software. Coming from iTunes, the Zune software takes some getting used to, but I like it.

Everything seems back to normal today, and running much better. I love the Zune pass.
