Ipod or Zune?

Kool Aid Man · 25 Sep 2008, 08:43 AM

Along with a computer Im looking at getting a new Player. I have had the old 30gig Ipod and it only lasted 3 years before going kapupt. But I liked it. And I liked ITunes, but I have been interested in a Zune and like certain things of it so far. So what do you have? What do you like or dislike about it?

I can't speak for the zune. But I've got both a 30 gig iPod Video, and an iPhone. And they are awesome. I don't know what the zune offers, but an iPod Touch has wifi, music and video player, plus the app store games and apps. Not to mention what becomes available after jailbreaking it.

Zune's offer a lot more file types for videos, but have less memory for their hard drives. I'd go iPod.

I have a 30gig Ipod.

Got it last year after my buddy gave it to me when his girlfriend bought him an Ipod Touch,the thing was is that he gave it to me with a cracked screen but I wasn't complaining because he gave it to me as a b-day gift.Eventually I went down to the Apple store and got a replacement for free,luckily I went before the warranty went up on it or I would've had to pay for it be repaired even though I wouldn't have cared.

I haven't had any problems with it since and I love it.

I can't really comment on the Zune.

Go with the iPod. Nearly every MP3 player accessory these days is designed specifically for the iPod. Apple also does a good job of constantly adding new features that the consumer actually cares about and will use.

I'd feel left out if I didn't have an iPod just because so much of the MP3 player industry is targeted directly at iPod owners.

iPod. This shouldn't even be a question.

Until I get a Mac, I'm going with both iTunes and mp3s...once I get a Mac...and an iPod...

...there'll be no need for mp3s ever again.

Late.

I've got a 120 gig ipod... I use it all the damn time, I have no real interest in changing right now

Kool Aid Man · 04 Oct 2008, 04:31 AM

I went with the 120 gig classic black. Beats my old 30gig thats for sure. And I love Itunes.

You MUST get a Mac. I just bought a MacBook for university and I can tell you that after a week of using it, I'll never buy a Windows PC for the rest of my life.

On a different note... what PS3 games you got?

I've never owned a zune but I'm pleased with the ipod I have. I prefer ipod over the zune just because I'm lookin at new car stereos and 99% of them have direct ipod control which is a plus

Micky Knox · 13 Oct 2008, 02:42 PM

^^^^ most stereos just come with aux ports. zunes are pretty good but the touch navigation isnt very responsive

Well I went with Ipod again like I said. Classic 120gig. And I just downloaded the Monopoly game for it and it is tight. Great game.

Chances are better than not that any girlfriend they've ever had cheated on them multiple times, probably right in front of them, laughing at their pitiful punk asses the whole time while they sat there and cried. If you or someone you know has been caused grief by an "Internet Bully" then you and/or that person is nothing but a little punk ass bitch, and the world would be a better, more manly place if you'd just jump off a fucking bridge already.
