Zune owners scare me.

I got to say almost everyone who shops at the mac store scares me. They are like a cult. Anytime i go in there it seems like everyone picked the same shirt, tie, and shoes to wear that day. It is really nerve racking.

But I digress and one to my main gripe

Frankly i think is it just better then the ipod. I have never had a problem with my zune(nine months into my ownership), but the ipod i got as a gift last year crapped out in less then three months. Even when it did work it was spotty at best.

I dont own the 80GB slimline version but i have used it at my friend’s and i got to say i do like the flicking motion to use the menu.

People are proud to carry around a little piece of scrap metal with “Microsoft” branded on it just so that they can say it’s not an iPod? Damn.

I think there’s a difference between the half of Zune owners that bought it at full price, and those that bought it for $99 off woot. I would definitely prefer an iPod, but the Zune at $99 was too good of a deal. As for the new Zunes, I like the scrollpad better than the iPod’s clickwheel, but only because the scrollpad lets you do iPhone-like flicks to scroll down a long list.

Seriously looks PhotShopped. My Zune gives me 1% of the headaches that my kids’ iPods give me. My son is about ready to stomp on his iPod, except that he knows he can find some sucker on eBay to give him $100 for it.
