Sorry guess I need to clarify. It has issues with other video formats and not audio. I can just drag and drop on my Zen : M and play just baout any video format.
Don't really need to prove anything though. It's a retail buyers world and my choice was made through purchase and education and this article....

Although intuitive in some aspects, I had to return the Zune after 1 day.
I had issues loading certain media files (it could not convert them)so it just skipped them or crashed.
I disliked the fact of having to use WMV/WMA for everything.
It was a bit clunky overall, albeit it has the 3" screen so that is part of it.
I was not wanting an iPod as it is a bit too common and still has the whole single format issue so I went with the Creative Labs Zen:M 30 gig.
Best player I've owned to date and it supports nearly every video format I've thrown at it and the big 3 audio formats are supported without conversion. Good software and a good interface.
Plus it was only $229 and has better/more functionality.
Just an opinion, but, go with the Zen if your looking...
