ipod vs. zune

I was an iPod user for 4 years (since like the 3rd Gens), then I finally switched over to Zune, and I've never looked back.

I have had both.

I like the zune better because it is bigger and doesn't use that sliding/glide stuff to turn the volume up and down. The software is about the same. Zune allows for subscription and itunes does not. So you can download infinite music legally for a small charge.

Ipod works if you care about intergration.

FWIW, I use Zune to get music and then strip the DRM and put it on my iPod.

I am guessing those who like the ipod because it's small have girly hands or something. I do use the ipod for working out, but at my desk, I prefer the zune by far.

I've owned both and I definitely prefer the Zune. It's a much more reliable player.

I've had my 30gb iPod since 05 and have never had any problems with it. Nor with iTunes. The biggest problem I have had for the last year is that when I leave it off for a day it won't turn back on, so I reset it (hold middle button and menu for 8-10 secs) and it voila, it works great again. For something that is going on 4 years old, that is the least of my worries. Best investment I ever made, let alone the integration with...everything.

I had to reset my iPod every time to get it to turn on. I got tired of it, and then someone stole it. Sucks for them.

Ipod the best there is, I use to have a ipod mini and that thing to dropped so much but ti still ran until the batter finally went than I replaced it and it was good as new that I lost it oh well they last fairly long. iPod IMO is the best, My friends son wanted a zune got it and could never figure it out so LMAO he threw it in the trash asked for an ipod "no joke"

ipod because everyone has one. Ipod for the fact of using it in the car, zunes were pretty cool but meh

That is a nice reason I would not get an ipod. I don't want an PMP that is exactly the whole world has.

I've owned both and I definitely prefer the Zune. It's a much more reliable player.

I agree on this, and I also had ipod before and switched.

I used both a 120 zune and now I got zune HD 32, but I have used the 120 at the gym but not for heavy running or lifting weights, and now I can do the heavy workouts with the zune HD because it is flash drive and now there will be a 64gb flash zune HD this 13th of April.

Ive had both as well. I personally like the longer battery life of the ipod. and I think it is easier to control. and the best feature that ipod has over zune is that you can create playlists on the go and save them.

I can make just the same thing with playlists on zune. That does not change anything. Sorry, and don't take offense, but this thread is just like "my daddy is bigger than your daddy" situation.

Just keep up on it? Yes, it does and arguing is just not enough to satisfy you isn't it?
