Well first and foremost, I'll say this: I'm an iPod man. I love iPods, I have two of them in fact, and I've done a lot of things with them like hacking them to play doom, and some other cool stuff. 30GB is quite a bit for an mp3 player, let alone the 60GB version. So there's also room for not only your music, photos, and videos, but your other files, because you can use it as sort of like a flash drive. So in short, I can't get enough of my iPods. But recently I heard of Microsoft coming out with their Mp3 player. Even though not many details have been released yet since it won't be sold until November, Microsoft has already said that this new player will beat the iPod because it will have a larger screen than the video iPod, it will give free downloads to all iPod users for songs they've downloaded on iTunes, and the major boost: it will have Wi-Fi capabilities. So wherever you are, you can get online to do whatever, including downloading songs on the go. I'm starting to feel a little weaker about iPods now, since they don't have Wi-Fi, so mabye I might just buy the new mp3 player when it comes out in November. What do you guys think?

The Zune series sounds interesting, but I would hold off on considering a purchase for now. It's like any evolving tehnology, in it's first stages of release it will be buggy and will cost more than the competition. And the built in WiFi will basically let you share songs, not download (to the best of my knowledge), and with restrictions at that. Let's wait and see what Microsoft has in store, maybe it's offerings later on will have even more.

i'm curious to see the outcomes of these two competing mp3 players aswell. i know ipods are great, i don't own one myself but hey if i had the money to cash out on one, believe me i would. it's interesting to see what might happen between these two. i don't think the zunes can store as much as ipods but the screen size and wi-fi capabilities certainly make up for this. i mean, anything above 30GB is plenty for portable media playing imo. even if wi-fi can only transfer songs or stream ebtween other units i think thats pretty dam awesome. if u can share them, i dont see why u cant connect to a server and download them directly, it only seems logical. we'll just have to wait abit and see how both units go i guess, not much longer anyway. i actually think the zunes will do well against ipods though.

Well, first of all, I really don't like it when people are asking what I am going to do with all that space...Thinking only about the present and not the future expansion is bad...When I buy something I want that something to last for as long as it can... Secondly, I really do think that Apple has the experience in mp3 players that microsoft doesn't have. Still, I really don't know what happen, apart from the fact that the market share of apple will shrink...

Personally, I'm going to wait a year or two so that they can improve on it again. Anyone remember the GB Advance? Everyone wanted one until the better SP came out and then the price dropped. That's what happens with all new technology so you can count on it for this. Because it is newer, waiting to hear some feedback from critics and others using it might be a bonus to influence the decision to ditch the IPod and join Microsoft or to stay loyal to the Ipod and snub the other. Your money, your choice- I will still say to wait at least four months.

I have to agree with you there. Company's need some experience working on their products and the more they make, the better they will get, such as the Ipods. The Zune will cause a lot of hype and I'm sure will sell fairly well, but the Ipods will still conquer. Microsoft will continue to make better and greater MP3 players, because they just love competition. Microsoft would have to have an amazing, something new and creative idea in order to blow out the Ipods. The Ipods have built up quite a reputation that will be hard to destroy. As for the price, it won't make that much of a difference.

Definitely it´s better to wait. Microsoft can promise the moon but who know how this will work really. Companies never announce tha bad sides of their products and this one surely will have some. I also think ipods are far too expensive for what they offer, but they have a solid backgrund and you know you can trust them.

well... Im going to but the microsoft mp3 player. I own an ipod nano, and i do have to say it lacks many features, which really disappointed me. But wi-fi sounds nothing more than incredible for an mp3 player. makes me wonder how much the microsoft mp3 player will be able to hold music wise.

I've always preferred the iPods. I try to stay away from supporting Microsoft whenever I can. When the Zune first came out (about a year after the 5th Generation iPod Video), it seemed pretty good considering it had a bigger screen, and Wifi capabilities. The Wifi capabilities did sound cool at first, till you learn that the only thing you can do with it is exchange songs with other Zunes (And only keep for 3 days or something). The iPod Touch, released recently, has definitely managed to blow the Zune out of the water. It's got a 3.5 inch touch, wifi internet access, plays videos, but only has 16GB of memory. That's something I'm fine with, though. It's basically an iPhone without the Phone Feature. QUOTE(runeco) The Ipod is still the dominating force in portable music by a long shot, and it will take a VERY big, new innovation to knock it off its pedestal. I agree with runeco, the iPods always were a bit pricey, but Microsoft seems to just follow the path that it's other competitors have already made, and adds in a mediocre feature (like the Wifi-feature in Zune, or the Aero Glass interface in Vista). Apple has been in the Poartable-Music Player market far longer than Microsoft has. Micosoft, in my opinion, is a nameless and faceless corporation. It shows in their products/marketing as well.

I would have to disagree with most of the majority here, I prefer the zune player for one reason... I dont have to translate everything to ITUNES! That is just annoying to convert every song I have into itunes... Zune may be a bulkier size but believe it, a newer version would come out which will be must slimmer.

Hmm... Microsoft says a lot of things like this. I am an Ipod person, I love them too. If Microsoft are going to release this, with Wi-Fi and all I think it is turning into more of a PDA. Have they released any pictures? I would think it would be quite bulky if they are going to put all these extra features into it. Also Ipods have become some sort of fasion aswell, with the little socks aswell  .
