Just barley hearing about Zune. When did it come out? And I don't know about a bigger hard drive, but there is a mod you can do, check out http://www.zuneinfo.com for that. Im now very curious about the Zune, as it looks awesome.
zune isn't even plays for sure compatible

When did iTunes stop letting you rip all your old CD's and let you transfer music into your iTunes library that you downloaded from P2P programs so you could put it on your iPod? Wait, it didn't.
he's just repeating what someone else told him, most likely
i don't personally own an ipod, but if i had to buy an mp3 player right now, the ipod still seems like the one to get, since it has all the hardware available to function like a disc changer
and i was gonna wait-out for a similar device to come out for the zune, but apparently zune isn't even plays-for-sure compatible, which was my whole reason for wanting one
and as for actually using an mp3 player to walk around and listen to music, i've never understood who has all this spare time to walk around listening to music.... i can't listen at work, u of a's campus is literally in downtown akron, so i can't walk around on campus with earphones on, or i'll get run over, and i do my homework at home, so i can just play a cd on the stereo
not to mention if i listen at the library or something at school, i can never tell if other people can hear it, and i'm distracting them, so i don't like to use them then, either

^ yeah I own an iPod, have for almost two years now. I like it, it's reliable, has yet to glitch up on me. Plus the whole market it seems serves the iPod with products for home and car that are getting quite nice. Plus the cosmetics and build on them is good and Apple does take care of you if you get the AppleCare plan (my friend put his through a drier, and then it's replacement as well and they sent him brand new ones no questions asked both times).

What is plays-for-sure?
plays-for-sure means it compatible with the temporary and updateable drm lisences for subscription based music downloads, such as napster to go and rhapsody, where you pay a monthly fee for infinite downloads, and the lisences need to be updated after each payment rollover.
aka, if you pay for one month at a time, the lisence will run out at the end of the month, and you need to link the player to the computer to update the lisences to be able to continue to play the files. if you pay for a year up front, then you don't have to update the lisences until after the year is up, etc.
it requires the player to keep time and date.
most of the creative players have it, and i assumed microsoft's own player would have it, but apparently not. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
i was hoping for a player that has ipod-esque car stereo-linkable functionality that plays them, because imo a subscription infinite download service is the way to go for music downloads, but i really only listen to music in the car
