Found this interesting tidbit on Gizmodo...
After reading a lot of posts it looks like this is tied to midnight PST December 30th 2008. It may be a coincidence but that today is the 366th day of 2008 since it was a leap year. One part of the firmware probably calculated that it is 2009 already and another that it is still 2008.
I wonder if they all recover at midnight PST tonight?
If someone with a 30, can recover enough to change the Zune's clock to some other day.... does that fix the problem?

+1 to the dead zune list. I miss my podcasts... Now the work day will go much slower. I was thinking that since today is GMT 366 (leap year) and the software might not realize that there is in fact a GMT 366, this might just resolve itself tomorrow once it turns over to GMT 1 2009. My industry keeps track of these sorts of things, so my money's on that possibility.

Dec 31st 2008 8:58AM My goodness!!! My 30 gig bricked and I was just about to log on to the Zune website to get a fix, and i saw this. Microsoft has some explaining to so. I cant believe this is widespread. Did they have a self-destruct timer on it or something? I have sooo much music on my 30 gig. MS need to clear this up real quick.
