Microsoft unveils it's version of the iPod - Zune

[Ellis.]

Personally, I'm not too keen on the colour but the whole thing sounds fine and dandy

I didn't really get what I was reading, but is it that you have to buy songs instead of uploading them now?

Have you been living under a rock? Or are you just unaware of other mp3 players making a huge hit? Many companies are making them and they're doing great: Creative, iRiver, Toshiba, etc.

But personally, I still think Apple is ahead by miles, if not only by brand recognition. I know so many people who refer to MP3 players in general as "iPods".

That still does not justify saying the "Ipod dont have competition"

[uh huh her]

Theyre ahead by brand recognition, but thats it. Their technology isnt new. Everyone thought that iPod video was the first video MP3 player, but there was a video by creative out a few years before.

Becuse the ******s? ipod IS NOT AN mp3 player... it does NOT play MP3s.... it uses an itunes format insted... itunes media files are not in mp3 format "/

I like it but i think the ipod will be still in the lead, ipod is a name everyone knows (apart from cave dwellers) in alot of countries, I doubt people would just ditch their old ipod's for a new unknown music player. I think they released it a little too late, if they had release it maybe 2 years ago with all the technology it has i think it would've been more of a success than the ipod.

I'm on a mac so I can't buy a Zune. =]

I don't need WiFi to send music to each other tbh. Apple will bring out something along the same lines.

Oh, and yes, the iPod is an MP3 player. It plays my MP3s.

The ipod's are so well known as being the best MP3 players out there, i don't think anything, not even this will stop them.
