Can someone please help I love watching music vedio's and I just got a creative Zen w. I have several Music video's that I purchased from Itunes. I really would like to watch them on my Zen due to DMR I can not. I ask this wise forum is there any place music video's can be purchased that will work on my Zen... Any Ideas????
iTunes downloads use proprietary DRM technology, and since Apple is so restrictive you'll find that you're pretty much limited to playing them on your computer and iPods. You could try burning them to DVD through iTunes, and then rip the DVD back to your hard drive (a legal technique that works for iTunes music), but aside from that just avoid iTunes...most online services should work, so just check the help section on eah site for details. Also remember that you can rip your existing DVDs to your computer, provided that they are not copy-protected, and copy them over to the Zen for portable viewing.

You can only burn video to dvd for back up purposes, so that technique used with iTunes music doesn't work for video.
You can buy for $1.99 music videos from CinemaNow.com. They do not have as many vids as itunes but it is a start and they are looking to expand the number of videos. Most of them can be played on 3 devices a PC a Labtop and a portable. Some of them can only be used on 1 PC. If you are running vista home preium you watch the videos on your TV with media center. Wel it is a start .
