Q: "How do I get that music into iTunes? How do I change music from zune format to iPod? All the music I have on my computer is in a zune format, and recently I got an iPod and want to put music on it."

put Zune music to itunes/ipod on Windows

A: Yes, but you should know that songs from Zune Marketplace or Zune Pass are offered in Microsoft DRM-restricted WMA format (2-pass CBR @ 192kbit/s) or non-DRM MP3 format (up to 320kbit/s) for a per-song or per-album fee, while the iPod/iPhone offers AAC(Apple DRM-protected .m4p & non-DRM .m4a) music and mp3 drm-free format.
The non-DRM music in mp3 extension from Zune Software can play on iTunes/iPod without limitation, but the DRM-protected WMA songs from Zune Marketplace can't play on iTunes due to DRM license restriction. So how can you transfer the Zune songs to iTunes/iPod/iPad in an easy and fast way?

To put the Zune DRM music to iTunes, you should firstly remove the DRM and then convert the WMA format to iTunes supported formats such as MP3, AAC. The easy and fast way is to do this with a professional DRM Converter - Noteburner Audio Converter for Win.
