Id rather a Zune any day. i wouldn’t own an Ipod if it was giving to me. the Zune is easier to use and has never had any reports of catching FIRE. Would you rather have a reliable gadget or one that is a disaster waiting to happen? That Zune glitch was fixed within 24Hours. try getting that fast of a fix with Ipod.

“…m. Thankfully, it seems some at Microsoft HQ have listened as the latest screenshots of WinMo 6.5 definitely have a Zune-ish feel…”

And by “Zune-ish feel” I assume you mean a “Microsoft interpretation of an iPodish feel…”

I’m always having to defend my reasoning for buying a Zune. I’m with you Zune’s great, I’m not knocking the Ipod but to me the Zune is the easiest to use and I love their subscription plan.

im sorry i dont know actual numbers and im not interested in finding them but i think you are really wrong ¿130 millions in revenue? that means MS has sold only 520000 XBoxs not counting games and peripherals! do yoursel a favor, im not asking you to actually research about whatever subject you may want to post about but at least use your common sense so you dont end up writting stupid comments and in the position of a ignorant looser, go back to 4th grade and learn your math you sad stupid sub-human

I’m kind of tired of people ripping on the Zune when they’ve probably never even used one. The Zune has an awesome feature that the iPod doesn’t: subscription music. Plus, the desktop software is about a bazillion times better than iTunes.

Although I have an iPhone, I still carry and use my Zune every day. I love it. I’m glad Microsoft is sticking with it.

why the hate? does competition somehow harm you or upset your life. I can think of no reason for the blind zune hatred.

That was a 2006-gen Zune developed by Panasonic. Most Zunes did not experience that issue.

Sometimes companies don’t know when to throw in the towel and walk away. I don’t know one person who has bought a Zune.

The Zune seems like a decent piece of hardware, though after the New Year’s issues it had, i can’t help but question it’s reliability
