Well, I recently got an iPod Nano-Chromatic, but gave it to my cousin because she bought me a PSP. Now, I'm thinking about trying out other stuff. Pls help me!

Zune

+1, much better than iPod (unless you get ipod touch, then get that instead).
Zune is sweet, you can share music with your friends wirelessly, wirelessly syncs, has nice storage, has great backgrounds, you can customize the back (which is Farking badass), and what can I say? It's just better. It's especially good if your other friends have zunes too.
I have an iPod though, lol.

Depends on the iPod...

I'd say the only ipod really worth buying right now is the Touch

The Walkman has great sound, but I'd prefer the iPod touch, cuz it has WiFi

I got the Zune, but I can't get the Zune Software to work, it says I need to update my Windows Media Center, but I just can't find it. If you can help me PM me.

Yup

@Kirkaldi
Don't just get an iPod because it's winning in the polls, notice how nobody is giving reasons to get an iPod, they're just voting for it.
However, yeah, the iPod touch is better than a Zune

Kirkaldi · Post by **Kirkaldi** » Sat Oct 11, 2008 9:31 pm

Yeah, I got myself a Zune today.

You don't give (a) reason(s) either for buying a touch over the zune

I just use my phone..Bought a 4gig stick for it, more than enough for my music and maybe pics I'll make with it =p

I hate it. Can't even get the Zune software to install. I'm going to return it tomorrow and get an iPod Nano-Chromatic again.

You tried to google your problem? Looked through the configuration screen, could be that there's an option for that windows media centre.

I agree that it should work right away but you're giving up pretty fast

unseen_venom · Post by **unseen_venom** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 1:05 am

ZUNE!

I got a white one when they first came out.
-downside I can't get it customized like the new ones out now.
But way better then a ipod. =]

Couldn't install the software on my desktop so I installed it on my laptop.

That sucks, though I see you got it to work on your laptop, so that's all good. I wonder what the problem was?

@XMoshe
Touche. I dunno, I guess it's a matter of opinion still, though iPod touch now has alot of games, and has internet, though doesn't have radio, and not as much storage, but it's completely touch interface, and I think it uses a flash drive for memory, not a hard drive (hard drives can break easier, but can store more too (you don't have to worry about it breaking on a zune though, that thing is packed in tight. In the new ipod classic though, they break alotttt (in the old ones they don't though))). Anyways, I've begun a rant, so I'll end it.

Keep us posted on how you like it, I wish I had one.

Every self respecting MP3 manufacturer packs in Hard drives, So does apple.

Furthermore, value for money is not measured by storing space. As that's the main arguement for people hatin' on Ipods. Yes the Zune has moer HD space, does that mean you get more value for your money?

NO.

Ipods have WAY more to offer these day then mere gigabytes of storage space. Apple is innovative. You get new updates frequently. The newer nano's even get certain apps. The usability is still top notch. Apple has GREAT service should anything ever happen. The value of Ipods doesn't decrease as rapidly.

Oh, and especially the Itouch OVER the zune anyday. No arguements possible to put that any other way.

Just get an ipod, it's the past (to some extent), present and Future.

To be honest. The iPod Touch, is a completely different 'class' from zunes/ipod classic/chromatic/whatever the **** they are called. It costs...SO much more. It uses SSD rather than a HD.

Only thing that can really be compared face to face are the iPod Classic and the Zune.
Both have similar if not the same price points. And the same HD space I believe.
I'm not exactly sure what features the iPod has? But feel free to add them. As well those that I listed. Zune has the ability to tag FM radio songs so if you like it, you can download it once you get home. Or access the marketplace at home/at a McDonalds free hotspot.
