How to play Zune Pass music on your WinMo and Symbian/S60 phone
Zune Pass is a music subscription service from Microsoft’s. Think of it as “all you can eat” music rental for a monthly subscription fee.
That’s pretty neat, but who wants to carry around a Zune and their phone? Wouldn’t it be nice if you could play Zune Pass music on your phone?
Kinoma Play to the rescue
With Kinoma Play, you can enjoy your entire Zune Pass collection — not to mention the rest of your media library! — anywhere, anytime by installing Orb on your home PC or media server.
Not every song available in the Zune store has “subscription” rights, although most of my favorites did. And if you do buy tracks, those MP3 files will play perfectly with Kinoma Play as well.
Install and configure Orb
You can find instructions for installing Orb, and using Kinoma Play to stream your complete media library from your PC here.
Important: As I write this, Orb 2.5 has a bug that interferes with Zune Pass streaming. For now, use the latest 2.0.1 release from the Orb download page.
Try it for free!
Don’t have Kinoma Play yet? Get Kinoma FreePlay from http://kinoma.com/get/, and a 14-day Zune Pass trial from http://www.zune.net/en-us/products/zunepass/.
