I have a video ipod and i love it!!! But the only problem is whenever you want a new song you have to buy it for 99 cents on I-tunes
I heard that on the Microsoft zune you can play movies
Well I have been thinking about the same thing and I would have to say that I am leaning towards the Microsoft Zune. The iPod is great and I loved it when I had one. Now for once Microsoft has thought outside the box and pulled a fast one on Apple in features.
The biggest feature that will be noticeable is the screen. The screen is a vertical rectangle, however when you place the Zune horizontally it acts as a widescreen for your movies, which is so cool! Not like the iPod, which still has the same square screen.
The Zune is going to have wireless capabilities, unlike the iPod. For one in the Zune you can actually trade songs between Zune players. No more sharing ear phones with you friends, now you can just send them the song to their Zune. However, don’t expect to use this feature too much, because you have to think that many people won’t have the Zune at first and this feature only works between Zune players, so i would recommend getting your friends to buy one also to try this feature. I read that the Zune will be able to sync wirless to the computer, although I don’t how that exactly work, but the thought of transferring your songs from your computer to your MP3 is exciting, no more cables like the iPod!
If you have an Xbox 360, I know there is a feature between the Xbox 360 and the Zune, but I can’t recall it specifically, especially because I don’t own a Xbox 360.
The Zune will have a FM Tuner in the unit, which is always a plus because sometimes I just want to hear the radio and not the same music in my MP3 over and over again. The iPod charges extra money for the FM tuner, which is so stupid.
I think the biggest downside to the Zune is that its battery life is shorter than the new iPod video. But you get so many features and you will definitely stand out with your Zune than an iPod which everyone has. You can even customize the background in the Zune to whatever picture you want. The iPod keeps reproducing the same thing, nothing very exciting, they just improve battery life and storage capacity.
So in short I would get the Zune.
