I really haven’t been a fan of iPods, personal preference. It’s turned into this massive trend where if you have to have an mp3 player it must be an iPod. Like the article states, iPod has become synonymous with mp3 player. I dont actually own one at the moment. I want one, have for some time just haven’t had time or money at the same time to spare to get one. My brother owns the 120gb Zune and I really like the features it has, also I use the Zune software on my computer to play my music instead of windows media player these days. I think visually it looks great and works very well. Since the new Zune HD has come out, it has been bumped up on my “things I want” list. From all the reviews I’ve read or watched of it, looked at it in stores as a demo, I really want this thing. The screen looks great, it’s small and the overall look of it, I think, is really nice. Supposedly, it blows the iPod touch out of the water, especially the OLED screen. Also, a good thing I’ve noticed around where I live about it, is that it is CONSTANTLY out of stock quickly after shipments are received at the electronics stores. Whether that’s due to low numbered shipments or high demand, I don’t know that though. I don’t plan on buying my Zune HD from a store, since they only seem to carry the platinum version of the HD 32gb one and on the zune website, you can get a few different colors, one of them being all black, which I want. The other thing I might enjoy is the HD tuner. Will be nice to hear radio at CD quality when I do listen to it, perhaps find something more interesting on the radio to listen to than the usual garbage. All in all, I’m looking forward to getting mine and if I get it soon enough, I’ll be sure to write a review on it and put it up on here.
