MICROSOFTS NEW MUSIC POD v/s APPLE IPODS

The Zune sounds really awesome and looks good too but given Microsoft's policies on illegally downloaded music (which happens to be 99% of my music) I don't think I'll be able to listen to much music on it ): The iPod is great but it keeps spoiling and battery life is very short after a while. Also I think too many people have iPods so it's too common now :P

The zune is pretty cool but it is not compatible with iTunes and that is where i have all my music that i have bought. It has wifi capabilities but doesn't use it to its fullest extent- like connecting to a computer wirelessly. An opensource device known as the MusicGremlin has wifi and can connect to your computer to buy songs remotely or update the device- all wirelessly. Thats a pretty cool feature.

i love the zune and i am keeping it, alos i like apple ipod
