Well if you havent heard then you must be deaf & blind lol Microsoft is releasing its mp3 player which is wifi capable and able to try out songs from other zuniez across the street. I think the release date is Nov 14, for 249.00 at walmart. well the package looks nice, even though they copied the kind of simplicity ipod had, but i like the energy the packaging has. Even though its a little big, much bigger than the ipod 60 GB or now the 80GB. They took on a new color brown lol. I think this will do better than any other product other than apple just cause its microsoft. I mean what american doesnt like ms. But i am actually thinking of getting it, it has a huge screen also. NICE. would you buy it.

I don't even have an mp3 player but if I were to buy one I'd get an Ipod instead.

I don't have an Ipod. :( I had a cheap mp3 player, but my son threw it in the toilet. I suppose it really belonged there anyway, since it sucked.
I guess at this point, I could go either way. |

I have to admit, the black & the white ZUNE looks pretty nice.

Yeah, I definitely want a Zune. I'm glad it came out because that's one less Apple product I have to deal with. *sigh of relief*

the zune is sold EVERYWHERE, like in every gaming store, every tech store, everywhere, also toys r us. man they are trying to get everyone to buy it. I saw it everywhere i went . EB, toys r us, best buy, target...... just to name a few.
maybe i will get it if something happens to my nano and i wanna replace it. but other than that i wont get it now, and i still want microsoft to fix its hard edges and stuff. the software isnt as smooth as they said yet. |

i have an iPod mini, and I dislike it, but that's only because it's broken down on me a couple of times and i've had to get it repaired, and twice replaced.
other than that, i love my ipod. it's simple and not hard to use. i dislike the ZUNE, it looks large and very annoying. and i don't think it'll do well. and my parents hate Microsoft. the majority of the people i know still want ipods, or have them. |

^ Yeah, the iPod Mini SUCKS. Man, everyone I know has had to send theirs to Apple at least twice. That's probably why they discontinued their production. Also, the Zune is already doing well, so I think you thought wrong.
 It's unrealistic to think it will beat out an iPod at this point. I mean, it's brand new. This is kinda like a trial for Microsoft. A Beta test if you will to see how they can do in the MP3 business. Just like the iPod, the Zune will get better and better and I honestly believe when the next Zune or the one after that comes out, it will take over the iPods stronghold. It's already competing quite nicely for its first generation.http://news.com.com/Microsoft+sees+Zune+as..._3-6135131.html There's a link to see what I'm talking about. |

The Zune is only popular because you get to see a picture of a cute Asian girl having an orgasm when the installation fails:
 Oh, and there's two other girls making out right next to her. Nice. You don't see such awesomeness with the iPod. f**k you, Apple. |

My parents got me a zune for Christmas. I didn't even know what it was at first. I had to do some research on it. I like the zune just fine, though I don't know much about mp3 players.
--edit I have a white one! |

I'm sticking with my iPod Nano. The Zune does have some cool stuff like the sharing files thing but you have to find someone else with a Zune too, and it's a bit late, plenty of people have iPods already.

Fortunately, I like the Zune's size. It feels more sturdy. I was always hella careful with my mini iPod...and I would HATE to have a nano. Those things feel like they're going to break if you just pinch it too hard.

Who has seen the 2nd generation Zune?
I think it's pretty ugly compared to the 1st generation. The new menu is hideous. However, I do adore the green color. |

I looks like a brick to me.
I don't see how that would appeal more to a person than an iPod. |

zunes are amazzing.
They arent all hyper sensitive like ipods. Like okay im a clutz so theyre pretty good for me cuz I've dropped mine a dozen times now and it doesn't even look damaged and everything plays great. Plus the updates for it are fantastic. |
