I'm debating on getting a mp3 player and I know that I don't want a iPod. It's the whole attitude that apple users give that turn me off to the product as well as the iTunes software the irritates me.

So, right now I'm thinking of picking up a Zune. I saw a 30gb Zune (last gen I believe) for $99 at Costco. What's the difference between the last gen and the newest gen Zune? Which would you get?

 Well from what I heard...I could go check online, but I'm lazy...is that the new Zune's interface is a bit better, its touch interface as well as the menus.  Battery life is likely longer, too. 

The older 30 gigs are still good though...definitely worth $99.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

I've heard great things about the new Zunes as well but Apple has me trapped. I've become their bitch! The funny thing is I used to hate iPods but every other Mp3 player I tried just wasn't up to par in one or more categories. I believe the Zune can match it in features that matter but I think it's too late for me to jump ship.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

I don't necessarily support the Zune but I am not a fan of the iPod at all because all it is is a fad since some people for some reason starting thinking Apple things are cool and isn't even superior to other MP3 players, in fact its worse in my opinion because of iTunes.
