I love my zune now, but it is annoying in my pocket for some reason.  I like the look of my original better though.

I have an MP3 watch, a 20 GB ipod, and I just won a ipod shuffle in a gaming tournament... All of them collect dust.
Why? Because I have a smartphone with an unlimited data plan. So, not only can I have like 8 gigs of media on a SD card, but I have access to my entire music and video collection via services like orb.

For me, the dedicated mp3 player has gone the way of the CD. The only way I would ever consider a Zune would be if Microsoft continues to forget its Windows Mobile users and offers live arcade games with achievements on the Zune instead.

I was going to do the same (when they came out over here), until i found out by a few of my friends in the US that the iPod is still better.

I bought a Halo 3 zune. I like mine, sounds great in my car. The screen rocks. Kinda wish I waited for Zune 2 though. Ah well.

No Podcasting support. Terrible DRM. And MS's "f*ck you" attitude to Plays4Sure customers and all the promises they made them before - 3 reasons a Zune isn't on my shopping list.

PS What's this got to do with the XBox?

You have to be kidding.  Terrible DRM?  Ever seen an iPod/iTunes combo? Hell somebody sent me an iTunes card a while ago so I downloaded it just to get the songs then unistalled it.  Even the "DRM-Free" stuff on iTunes I couldn't get to convert to any decent format.  And what is there to a podcast besides recorded audio?  Just donwload said recorded audio and put in on the Zune.  Just cause you are too lazy to check when something like the Bungie Podcast actually comes out with a new segment doesn't mean others aren't.

for 1 the zune had great potential. ( but failed IMO)

for 2 m$ needs to make stuff better before they sell it and come out with a v.2 so soon

for 3 the software sucked,

i liked mine but i never used it and traded for a psp smile.gif

The best way to use a zune = bring your own music

I hate buying music online, I hate drm regardless of whos providing it
I just buy cds and rip em

I know about 10 people that have a zune and they all like it. A couple of them came from having an Ipod and they say the Zune is still better.

The only thing the Ipod has that the zune doesn't is over 5 years of experience.

I just picked up a Zune and I like it.  I already have alot of movies in Mp4 for my psp that the zune software converts.  I loaded up audiobooks, podcasts and music no problem.  I just wish I could have found a Halo 3 Zune somewhere.
