Anybody have a Zune MP3 player?
I got one for Christams and it's cool as hell !!!
I never had an mp3, but this thing is friggin awesome !!!

30 GB hard drive holds 7500 songs, 100 hours of video, has an FM tuner (radio) and you can transfer songs and other data, wireless to someone else who has one.
It's Microsofts Ipod killer.......

There are some ipod video that is 60GB. I don't know if you can kill that one. I think you have it "one upped" with the wireless though. How much was it?

Actually I think I-pod makes a 80GB. But pound for pound , well dollar for dollar, and comparing Apples to Apples,
The 30 GB I-pod and 30 GB zune are both $250 bucks. They both hold 7500 songs, BUT the zune holds 100Hrs of video vs the I-pods 30 hrs. Plus the zune has an FM reciever, the I-pod does not. Also with the zune you can transfer songs and data to another unit, where with the I-pod you cannot..............
Also the Zune has a bigger screen to view Video and pics. all that =I-POD KILLER in my book....unless your a die hard Mac fan, then I can't change your mind. Kind of like trying to convert a Ford guy to Chevy's...:whistle:

Oh and the zune is coming out with a larger hard drive as well, (I think it's out now) not sure how much though space or price......

I have seen and used both and I prefer the zune. But I own a PNY that holds about 400 songs, no video, does have fm reciever, and voice memo option. Uses either Mp3, wma, files and is the size of a memory stick. about a half inch, x 2 1/2" x 1/4'. On sale clearance at Comp USA for 39.00. I have a stereo system in my car of my own design. And in my office I sport a total of 880 watts of rms 1760watts peak of Pure Sony ES audiophile series amp with 4 speakers of my own design and personally built by yours truley so when I listen to something that small it sounds kinda puny. Not the ones yall have but the pny I have has no volume. I am a music nut from way back. I do custom audio installations and custom loudspeakers. Its hard for me to put a bud on my ear and get much musical enjoyment out of it. Allthough the only reason I dont have a 250 dollar Zune is because every time I get some extra cash I invest in materials to build more speakers. Oh well cant have everything.

What kind of volume level does the Zune you have put out. Got to be lots better than mine.
