Understanding ZPL and M3U file formats
Zune Playlist (ZPL) is a file format used by Microsoft Zune, a media player software. ZPL files contain a list of songs or other media files that can be played back on a Zune or other compatible device. These files are similar to other playlist files like M3U, but they are specifically designed for use with Microsoft's Zune software.
M3U (MP3 URL) is a file format used to store multimedia playlists. It was originally developed for Winamp, but it is now supported by many media players. M3U files contain information about the location of each item in the playlist, allowing the media player to find and play each item in turn.
