My friends bashing me for buying a Zune. I mean really, here is a nice conversation from yesterday:
Me: *Pulls out Zune*
Friend : Ewwwwwwwwwww it's so big, its a intercourse ing brick.
Me: Whatever look at the iPods with the same memory. They are just as big as this and have a tendency to break, though Apple may have fixed that problem, don't remember. Memory takes space.
Friend: Well ummmmmm....... ZUNE PRODUCTS HAVE A TENDANCY TO BE FAT AND UGLY.
Ahaha, at least I use some slight logic. Anyone want to tell me about the problem with the Classics though? If I remember correctly they broke extremely easily before, but Apple fixed that problem and they seem to be durable enough.
You're just being picked on for being different.
Also, you didn't get the 30 did you? Especailly the brown one...
I really don't care.
As long as it isn't one of those poop brown and puke green ones.
Zune are better than Ipods acually any mp3 player is better than the Ipod.

No, the 80.
They sell the browns for $100 at Circuit City, the rest of the 30 gig colors are $200 though ;-;.
Tell them I-Pods are overpriced and overrated
I'm quite tired of people saying rap sucks and all those clever jokes about it. Get over it.

If only I had a picture of one of my friend's MP3 players.
Obviously the iPod isn't the worst if it's sold so many.
Then again, millions of Macs have been sold, so... ::)

iPod's on the other hand >_>.......

However, it WOULD be a stretch to say they're the worst MP3.
They're not the worst, but they're in no way the best.
iPods are pretty, and that's it. iTunes is a poopty media program. The only thing I've ever had use with on any Apple product was Garageband, and I only used that for fun.

And yet iTunes works perfectly for me. Funny.
Look, what I'm quite tired of is people arguing about mp3 players in the first place. iPod or Zune, there's not much of a difference when you get right down to it. They've both got problems and pluses, and they're both portable media players.

iTunes takes at least 5 minutes to open, literally. I have NO idea what the hell it could be doing in those 5 minutes, but obviously it must be SO IMPORTANT.
And yes, every portable media player is indeed a portable media player. Some people think looks are everything, others realize that there's more to it than looks.

WMP takes less than 5 seconds for me, and my music is up within another 5.

Yeah, WMP opens pretty quickly for me too. I just don't use WMP because of my iPod.
I plan on getting a Zune, but it doesn't really matter which MP3 you use, as long you can enjoy your music. ;)

WMP opens much faster than iTunes.
Winamp takes about as long to load as Firefox does, for me at least.
WMP isn't that bad, I simply perfer Winamp. The only reason I have iTunes is because I have an iPod, and the only reason for that is because I was too lazy to go show my mom something cheaper and easier to use than an iPod, with the same memory capacity as what I was getting...
iPods and iTunes are both terrible, for numerous reasons.
iPods are for preppy girls, mostly, and iTunes is just a horribly written program.
I love my Sansa Connect, though. <3
zunes are ok...except the brown ones look like turds
Really Kaz, the Zune software plays more things than WMP does by itself, but I don't use it as my main media player because, it sucks.
WMP plays everything (with the CCCP installed at least, but everyone should have that), and seems to manage media better than anything else I've used before; besides mp3tag, but that's a seperate program just for editing the tags in the files. (It doesn't play music, just opens your default player)

Winaaaamp. :)
Meh, iTunes may suck especially due to all the blocking of files...
But I use an iPod and it plays music so I could care less.
And I don;t need portable videos, so a 2 GB nano is perfect for me.
And iTunes takes maybe 20 seconds to open for me...
Actually less.... :|

I like iPods, not to be YAYACOOL or anything. It's simple to use, has everything I want, etc.
Zune, I don't give a poop about, nor do I care whether or not someone uses a zune. Hey, do they still have short battery lifes, btw?

I get a better battery life than it says its supposed to, so I guess.
Serious question though, does iTunes play video?

Barely >_>
It can, it's quite simple to use, once you actually get it to realize what file you want it to play, and wait for it to actually realize that you WANT it to be played, not added to your playlist.

I figured since it was called iTunes, it wouldn't have nice video support. Guess i'm right on that one.
I agree that Zunes are nice, but iPods have control of the market.
Example:
PS2 was the first 4th generation system to come out on the market in 2000. It gained control of the market, even though it had inferior graphics, and cases of breaking easily.
The Gamecube launched a year later, and everyone already had a PS2. Even if it had better technology, PS2 was already in the lead.
Anyone have a Creative? I'm kinda thinking about getting one of those since I no longer have an iPod and not really interested in getting another one.
