Can I legally sync to my Zune using iTunes?

I have a Zune and also have iTunes. I haven't downloaded anything into iTunes because I don't think I can sync my Zune up with the iTunes program.

I have searched online and found vague references to syncing the two, but I haven't seen any directions on how to do it. Is there an update for iTunes that I need to download where it will recognize my Zune? I think I have the most recent version of iTunes, but I might be wrong. It'd be great if I could just download it and be done with it. I just want to download audio books into my Zune, which seems to be lacking in the Zune marketplace. Is there some easy, legal way to make iTunes recognize my Zune?

    Without using any kind of third-party software or hacking system, there is no way to make your Zune compatible with iTunes. In other words, there is no "legal" way.

    Zune is associated with Microsoft, as iTunes is associated with Apple, the software and hardware from the two companies are generally incompatible with each other.

    Microsoft and Apple use two different incompatible DRM protections, so any files that you download from iTunes Store will not be compatible with your Zune. However, you can import files from iTunes to your Zune software that are not DRM protected.

    The simple answer: No.

    well if your music is downloaded from other places, from cds or on itunes plus, then once you install the zune software it should find all of your music from itunes.
