iPod VS Zune??

[Axellance]

what one do you like better and why??

I prefer the zune because..
-its a little cheaper
-has an fm radio on it
-has a larger display
-i like the looks better
-i like the fact that you can get any pic and make it your wallpaper
-there is a sharing capabiltity between zunes when they are nearby

EDIT: In my likes i am refering to the most basic model that zune makes. but this is intended to compare all models.

Ben has a zune.

I want an Ipod, just because of the accessories, hehe.

To me, the zune is just boring.

I prefer the iPod because..
- it has more models like iPod nano, Classic, & Touch
-like more the design
-Is from Apple
-More Capacity
-more tools and options
-cool software style
-in the case of the iTouch it has internet
-and much more reasons

( I have a Black iPod Video (G5.5) a 160Gb iPod Classic Black and an iPod Touch of 8GB and, I have used the Zune and its better the ipod)

iPod because Microsoft cant come up with a damned idea on their own if their business depended on it. Apple is and always be, the best MP3 and Video player maker. :cool:

I never used a Zune so I wouldn't know. I do have an iPod and its fine.

Apple is and always be, the best MP3 and Video player maker. :cool:Not always. Technology rapidly changes and new ideas emerge that can very well make the iPod obsolete or undesireable.

[alicia]

I've never even heard of Zune.. tbh.
I'm satisfied with my iPod though.

[Antares]

iPod. Especially iPod Touch. It does almost everything that was said in the OP except the radio and the compatability! GO IPODS! :P

Very true. But they are defiantly well ahead. Heck, they already have touch screens!

iPod. I enjoy my Classic's insane battery life. For music Zune just can't compare; it is nicer for video, but the 32GB Touch is better (if you can afford it, I don't own one).

[Bobby]

Zune can bow down to iPod.

I don't really have a reason :P

[Techno Monster]

ipod all the way!!!

Bill Gates the creator of microsoft started out working for apple and developed most of apple's software so yea apple is very original. I'd have to say Zune.

THat statement was very contradictory of itself...right?

[The Batman]

Ok I exaggerated a smidge but Gates did help to develop apple's prodcuts when he was working for them and still apple runs alot of microsoft software now.

well i prefer the iPods because the batteries are way better and the ipods are just better, and easier to use. For my ipod i only have to charge it every 3-4 weeks, and you cant beat that. I will admit the zunes are better for there price, but in the long run you will find it better to have an ipod

:guillotine:

[Antares]

I also think that iPods are more sophisticated. They are REALLY small. THe zunes are REALLY big and they come in brown :P A terrible color for it I think :P

[Axellance]

they actually only have 4 hr difference in battery life ;)

[Zephyr]

iPod.
I have the original 2g nano.
Over the course of 2.5 years it's been dropped, ran over, thrown, fallen down a flight of stairs, dropped in a puddle of water several times and still in good condition.
Durability is the selling point for me, I tend to get a little rowdy with my stuff and let people borrow it.

Looks closer to 16 to me. The Zune is rated to last 29 hours, the iPod classic 80GB for 30, which it exceeded. Video is about the same.

[Nihilus]

I would like a zune or a ipod.

[Axellance]

i also like zune because it is also quite durable and its case is metal like the iPod.

just to let you know in that statement i was simply refering to the zune 4gb vs the nano 4gb i guess there is a much bugger difference between the more expencive models.

IM SO SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST TOTAL ACCEDENT :(

Ah, well some of us like to store our entire collection. I really wouldn't have any use for a 4GB player.
