im getting one free which one to get?

ok so my stupid ipod broke again(for the fourth time). so tomorrow im going to get it replaced, so i can get an 80gb ipod classic or an 80gb zune, im thinking about the zune what do you guys think, i have had this ipod sonce 2006 and have had nothing but problems so i think i will get a zune, besides it has a bigger screen, plus all the wireless stuff, any1 have a zune, and what do u think about them if so

I have three Zunes.  One for me, one for my girlfriend, and one for my Dad.  I pay for the Zune marketplace subscription every month and we all get to download & sync as much music from the Marketplace as we want.  They've been great so far. 

That being said, if you're not going to subscribe to the Zune marketplace and already have your own music to load onto your new device, just get an iPod or one of those new Creative MP3 players.

ipod touch

"ipod touch"

I would get a Zune...I haven't heard anything bad about them and I hear they support a ton of formats.  I'm probably going to get one myself when I have the money. ;)

I'd go for a Creative, but that's just me. It has more file support than an IPod, a bit more flexibility than a Zune, and I'm just a personal fan.

That said, Zunes have a nifty interface that I enjoyed using quite a bit. It's all up to personal preference.

I have a Zune and I heart it deeply. Well worth the change from an Ipod.

Get an iPod. I personally like the iTunes Store the best because you don't have to pay for a subscription. You buy the songs and you're done. Except for the DRM... you're never going to be able to get away from that. Well, there is the old "burn to a CD and then rip it" trick.

Also, Apple puts a lot more effort into the iPod than Microsoft does with the Zune. Go with the iPod. Stick with Microsoft for their OS and with Apple for their iPods.

What extra effort does Apple put with their Ipod's that MS doesn't provide?

They put no effort into the IPod. If they did, it'd be a much more satisfying product.

...Dude...iPod....It's not even a contest.

I find iPods quite satisfying -.-"

But you shouldn't, and that's the problem."

you say it's personal preference, and then you say this?

Look. Go to a store and check out the Zune (and creative too). If you find them to be more enjoyable than an ipod, get it. If you don't... well you keep getting new ipods for free. what's the big deal?"

psp?

works for me.

ipod i had 2 zunes before i got my ipod. the big reason i love the ipod is itunes they usually have my music before the zune store gets it and also they dont use that stupid M$ points crap they just show you the total in dollars.

Here's a comparison, I strongly suggest you get a Zune for the Bigger screen and  radio .
