30GB Zune Black

Pros: great price, great sound, added podcast support

Cons: buttons feel kind of cheap, earphone comfort, can't synch with Xbox 360

The Bottom Line: An affordable way to keep your entire album collection with you.

Review: The first time I heard the word Zune I could only ask one thing, "What the hell is that?" I was then told it is a new music player similar to the iPod. Since I've always wanted a decently high capacity music player that wouldn't take me to the bank...

Pros: Large memory - easy to use - large selection of downloads available.

Cons: A little on the heavy side - software takes a little getting used to.

The Bottom Line: If you're a music lover and want to take all your CD's with you this is the way to go.

Review: I've had my 30 GB Zune for a couple of weeks now and I don't know how I ever got along without it. It holds thousands of audio, video, pod casts and photo files. Has a large color display and simple, intuitive controls.

I purchased my...

Pros: Screen Size, WI-FI, Interface, Controls, Ease of Use, New Software, Zune Pass

Cons: No on the fly delete

The Bottom Line: You can't beat the Zune for the money or for the features

Review: Zune, The best Mp3 player you've never heard of"

Why should You Buy The Zune over the Ipod?

1 Screen Size
The Zune 80 has a 3.2 inch screen, The iPod classic has only a 2.5 Inch screen. (Apple Fanboys, please don't bring the...

Pros: convenient, easy, large space, transferrable

Cons: freezes, shuts off, dies

The Bottom Line: My recommendation is don't worry about Zune. Find another product that will make you happy and won't stress you out and scare you.

Review: When I got my 30 GB black Zune, I thought it was probably one of the greatest days of my life. I was wrong. Originally, I had decided to purchase a Zune because I wanted needed a new mp3 music player. 30 GB is a lot, and I wanted to transfer a...

Pros: Okay Picture

Cons: broke after only year Not many accessories Impossible to work with Zune Customer service

Review: I liked my Zune for a while (only had it for a year) it won't even come on now. I am getting an ipod. I would not tell anyone to buy one.

Pros: none

Cons: everything

Review: the product started out great. However one month after my warranty was up i stopped letting me put music on it customer service was alright but is seemed like every question i asked was "let me check with my supervisor" or "let me ask someone else"...

Pros: Subscription, great software, durable, and very easy to use.

Cons: Sometimes the lock on the top of ipod has to be moved back and forth.

The Bottom Line: The Zune is great for anyone heavily invested in a Microsoft environment with the ability to stream the subscription music, as well as a long batter.

Review: What is Zune?
Microsoft's Zune portable audio and video player is a direct competitor to the Ipod video, encouraging a strong Social community from an internal wi-fi connection to a 30 GigaByte capacity. With the Zune settled in the market as a...

Pros: large screen, easy to use navigation, good software, good casing

Cons: points for buying songs don't equal dollars. no podcast support, limited accessories

Review: i never owned another mp3 player, so can't do a comparison. But I chose the zune because of the large screen, easy to use navigation, & the option of the monthly download subscription. I've had it a week and a half and really like it. The software...

Pros: 3 colors, Wifi options, FM radio, Larger screen than iPod, Customizable user interface

Cons: Less battery life than iPod, larger physical size, 30GB max capacity

The Bottom Line: In the Zune vs iPod war, try both, decide for yourself. Ignore the Internet nay-sayers who might not have actually used both, and get facts before making a decision.

Review: Physical Differences

First up, and maybe most important, is size. The 60GB iPod video is currently (well until they came out with the new 80GB) the thickest 5G iPod there is - and it's not very thick at all. They managed to cram a lot of...

Pros: its aight it isnt totally bad but ipods are better

Cons: bad software and TERRIBLE execution

Review: i wanted to like this cuz i really like the larger screen and extra features that ipods dont have but overall although ipods dont have as much the features it does have are integrated better. it has wifi, but its only for sharing songs which is...
