Zune vs. iPod Specification Smackdown

[nu2duo]

Just to let you guys know, the brown zune is getting harder and harder to find for $99. Dell.com still has them but they ship out in 6weeks. Newegg had them last week and I ordered one for my cousin. This week they are no longer available.
I wouldn't pay more than $99 for a Zune. IMO they are worth $99.

Screw MS. Mac your cool! But I prefer Archos. Just my preference. Easier to use and more storage.

Here is what I absolutely can't stand about the Zune. It takes forever and a day to load videos. It took me half of yesterday and another half of today to add 480 music videos. With the iPod and Archos I could create genre folders for my videos and simply drag n drop. With the Zune, you must use the software and when you sync the videos...well, Zune will take it's sweet time to convert them. Oh, it's also a darn resource hog.
.

Well if you encode your videos first the quality is much better and it only takes a few minutes to put them on your zune. And Itunes is pain in the ars to use. At least for me it is.

I would liken zune to ipod like Lexus to toyota...Lexus is the upgrade...as zune is as well

more people might have the more plain toyota....
(ignore that lexus and toyota are the same company)

Well it didnt hurt that I got a brand new zune for a $30.00 motherboard and an hour's worth of computer work.
