Unfortunately the Zen simply doesn't play MP4s. I'm not sure if *any* 
Creative player plays MP4s as they seem to be an Apple iPod only format.

You can convert them directly to MP3s using various software, assuming 
they're not locked tracks from the iTunes store. Although even those can be 
converted with programs like JHymn.
