Media Sharing with the Zune Software

The Zune software comes with the Zune device, but you also can download it and use it on its own. To set up streaming from your Zune software, see Share Media from a PC with Xbox 360.

Note

You can stream only unprotected content and Zune Marketplace content to your console.
