Zune 4.0 software just popped and is ready to download for the newest must-have portable media player. Our full review is on the way, 'till then check our hands-on and official launch-day press release just beyond the read link.

here is added information about the updates software features:

• Quickplay menu: quick access from your Zune HD to your favorite media including those you most recently added or played
• Smart DJ: Like Apple's Genius, Smart DJ creates like-minded music mixes. It also adds music from the Zune Marketplace if you have a Zune Pass.
• Mini Player Mode: Keeps a mini version of the player on top of your PC apps
• Download to own: For the first time you can download-to-own or rent full movies and TV shows in SD or HD formats.
  

Surprisingly, CNET says that Microsoft has killed the ability to "squirt" DRM-crippled music directly between Zune users. Not that it will be missed.
