coolchan Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 http://www.jakeludington.com/zune/20061001...comparison.html The thing to note is that the Zune is a 30GB and iPod is 80GB, of course the Zune is lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL Veteran Posted October 2, 2006 Veteran Share Posted October 2, 2006 I really don't like how Zune looks. The interface is not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Haze Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I guess it comes down to whether you want something that can play movies or just music. I'm pretty sick of iTunes myself, but I doubt Microsoft's software will be any better/more dependable. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan000 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 who cares about the software... i never use itunes cause winamp has ipod support. Zune has a nicer screen. the filesharing thing on zune SOUNDS neat at first but the 3plays or 3 days rule SUCKS. not sure what to buy... cause i want a mp3 player but the small ipod screen is disappointing if i want to watch movies ands tuff on it.... oooohhhh what to buy what to buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdog666al Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Zune looks brutal... :/ Why didn't they build a camera into the back of it? Would be very appealing to me if it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolslacker Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 An mp3 player is an amazing invention, but I would not buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlmodell Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i preordered the zune b/c of the interface-- and i think i wont cancel it because the size isn't as dramatic as people were emphasizing... now all i need is to find out how long the battery lasts.

Toology Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ugh...both players look disastrous in those pictures. Turn on a few lights in the room and turn off the flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 As good as the Zune may be, Microsoft needs to remember it's design that sells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonhead Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ugh...both players look disastrous in those pictures. Turn on a few lights in the room and turn off the flash. :yes: Yeah and next time you do a photoshoot, make the zune strike a pose: Blue Steel :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavalyr Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 i would buy either one if i had some extra cash at the moment. of course. either one is fine to me. since i have not played with either as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadrack Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Ugh...both players look disastrous in those pictures. Turn on a few lights in the room and turn off the flash. No Joke! Photos that use those cheap flashes built into cameras are going to look bad. Turn on some room lights, turn off the flash, and invest in a tri-pod. BTW: has Apple sue'd any tri-pod makers yet?

Nexus- Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Me too, there's no way MS can win, they should have thought of this 5 years ago :p -Rich- Or they should do the plan they are doing right now (this is not a joke, but basically what they have said in interviews). Step 1 release the 1G Zune and let it test the waters step 2 get feedback step 3 redesign the entire thing note how 1-3 follow exactly what they did with the xbox line. step 4 sell it via microsoft hardware and not have toshiba build it again I have a feeling that if the 360 has done so well based on this model the Zune wont have a problem either.

Toology Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Holy **** the Zune is big! So you consider all iPods prior to 5G to be "big" as well? It's not as if it doesn't fit in your pocket. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oootle Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 if its larger than an 80gig ipod then its very big, too big for me. And its only 30gigs, there really is no point of the massive screen and the only real feature it has over the ipod is wireless which reminds me of the infrared in gameboys. It looks good on paper but in reality its pointless as theres never anybody to do it with (unless its really popular of course) and who wants to transfer a song they can only play 3 times. Ill download mine of limewire thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
