Re: ipod or zune? need some opinions.
I've got a Zune 30gb. Had it for about a year. It's great. The new software is much improved too. The wi-fi is about useless and so is the radio but it plays music and videos well. Wish it had better codec support but...no biggie.
With the new software you can have it automatically download audio and video podcasts.

But, it'll also play songs downloaded from Limewire, bitorrent, etc. Or CDs you ripped, just like any other mp3 player.

yeah thanks that clears up a lot. if she would pay for the subscription every month, it would be ok. but she isnt very good with the money she does have, so i doubt it. and her parents wont let her get a p2p network on there computer so limewire and kazaa are out.

the zune 30gig was 80 dollars at toys are us on black friday... I got mine at dell forl 100 dollars.. I bet you can find a 100 dollar deal locally for a 30 gig zune. I wish the zune was more hack-able.

Why be a sheep? Get a toshiba gigabeat or something. an ipod is really just an MP3 player that has to use propritary software.
My boy has been rocking the 40 gig toshiba for years with no problems whatsoever.
