secksy... sleek design i think
although i think microsoft is using this has a cover for that 3 billion they spent with the warranties and all the repairs on top of it with the Xbox 360

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.

Well my Zen: Vision M is the best by a mile. And i base this on seconds of no research....!
All i know is it works with all my movie files, drag and drop, no codec problems at all

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.

haha zune 1 was such a failure that microsoft is already abandoning it and making a zune 2. i dont even know anyone who owns a zune.

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

I have a Zune....I like it. with the hacks over at zuneboards, you no longer have to worry about codecs....a big plus in my book.
I like my zune on road trips, someone else can drive, and I'll watch tv shows ( I have like every season of Futurama, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, & Family Guy on it...so no shortage of shows)

.
My cars deck has a aux out port on the front of it....which the Zune is always plugged into, the days of me fumbling around cd's (and I used to have 3 cd books) are over, if I dont like the song I just hit "next" on the zune.
My only complaint is that (while it does have FM), I also would like AM.

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.

Actually, MS stated that theyd be refreshing the design every year. And its been about a year now since the Zune came out.

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.
