I have never play an Zune, but, i discouver that, it is very frindly, it has very nice caracteristics, most important 120gb of storage, and it is VERY VERY easy to find the music inside of it, even more simple tha in an ipod clasic of 30gb (the one that i have had). If you are looking for an Mp3 player I think tha in this range of price the ZUne 120GB its the better choise you have, and the battery is very long lasting to. More than my last ipod. Zune is very light, the screen is not the best, but,the videos and pictures they look very nice. it has FM radio too, and the Quality of it is wonderful. The wifi in this dive it is completely usless. because, the only thing that you can make, is donwload music from de Zune.com site, ovbiusly paying for it. Im not shure if there is any kind of jailbreak to make it that gives you more uses for the WIfi. It doesnt have full browser, doenst have internet, but. Other thing, the program to sincronise it, in mac it is a little more complicated than the Itunes, but not big deal. The only problem is that you have to instal PArrallel desktop and Windows in your mac if you wanna use it. I will take a little bit but, at the end, it works great. I hope my review was helpful for you.Read full review
I don't think this item is an iPod-Killer, that's for you to decide. I don't own any iPods, but I've used the iTunes software and various versions of iPods that my friends have. iTunes has grown in complexity and size, I don't like how it hooks into your entire system and drains it, your mileage may vary here. The iPod design is fine, and the controls make sense usually. However, I didn't want to pay a premium to Apple for a music machine so I thought I'd give the Zune a try. Pros: Lightweight Easy to figure out controls Quick charge and sync Updates to the device firmware are seamless Cons: Very limited file format support, find a good converter The 'Squuircle' can misjudge your commands at times Accessories are expensive, so are the iPod's though While the Zune software is less resource intensive than iTunes and has a better visualization option, re-tagging files and managing your music is counter-intuitive. I think it took me about 5 minutes before I figured out how to put music on the Zune. A few tweaks by MS could make this software very user-friendly and beat iTunes handily. The Zune pass is also a great value for anyone who doesn't want to buy CDs anymore: $15 a month for unlimited music, 10 songs of which you keep each month DRM free. Of course it will work with your MP3 collection already, but as I said it is a hassle to manage music with the software.Read full review
I decided to buy an MP3 player when a co-worker got an internship and left our company and took her radio along with her. I work with dogs so you need something besides the constant barking to tune your ear to or you could easily go insane. I understand that Apple's products inspire quite the following and I'm sure there are good reasons for that, however all of the reasons I know of are still not enough for me to justify the price for their iPod, even the earliest generations will cost you close to $100 used (some even broken). I am a gamer on the Xbox 360 and a friend recommended me to the Zune MP3 as an alternative to the iPod, I decided to look into them. I was able to find an older generation (not a Zune HD) that plays video, pictures, music, radio and was able to update the firmware to add games. I signed up for a month of the Zune Pass Unlimited service to try and get the most out of my experience and that's where I find the true fun of the Zune. With my Zune account linked to my XBL account it has access to my friends list and with the proper sync options set I can get music ideas from their playlists and they can do the same from mine. The player has a clean sound to it, the Zune earphones that come with it are really pretty clear sounding but still sort of uncomfortable to wear for very long at a time. I haven't played much of the games as I am usually at work and that would get me in some trouble but I have played the texas hold em' and it can be a good time passer. At work we hooked the Zune up to an Altec Lansing subwoofer and tweeters set and it works better than my co-workers old radio. For my measly $26 investment I feel like I got a good deal for what I needed it for.Read full review
My 1st zune I've ever owned but so far I am satisfied with my purchase. i've owned alot of mp3 players & this one is awesome in it's own right. The Pros: Sleek interface & menu Great Audio Response, Quality & Output Nice Size Great Touchpad Organized Tracklist Zune Software is Awesome & Friendly (Better than iTunes) Wireless Sync & Wireless Sharing (Pro if others in your area has a Zune) Mini-Games Customizable Background Charges Battery Quick & Lasting Battery The Cons: Zune Will NOT Import iTunes (Not really a Con for me but for others it can be) Could've been a tad bit bigger, like 2'2 - 2'5 instead of 1'8 No Equalizer (I was shock @ that) Proprietary USB cord Overall, it's a great mp3 player but Microsoft are smart. Discontinued these to make the Zune HD 16gb which learned from there mistakes to make a better mp3 player w/ better features. Go figure.Read full review
I have a love-hate relationship with the Zune product line. I prefer it over Apple products. It works great with MP4 movies that I download or convert from DVD for playback later. Its a good player for movies. It does store a great deal of MP3's ripped from Audio CD's. Overall it does what its supposed to do and will also store photos and other files. Its not as versatile as other MP3 players, but on the other hand the quality for movie playback is good. I have purchased a 2nd Zune to store more movies for playback later. The 1st is used to store my audio library. The docking versatility is good too provided you have the docks and cords, etc. The only thing I don't like is the fact that Apple has so dominated the market that it makes it near impossible to find accessories outside of Microsoft Zune's product line itself. Whereas Apple has propagated all over the market place with accessories made by all sorts of competitors. Otherwise, it does what its supposed to do, but accessories are limited right now.Read full review
