Volume could be louder The Final Word The Zune may well make a solid addition to the MP3 player market. Its a nice-looking player offering good audio quality. However
After spending several months with an iPod and a Zune, one thing has become clear: the Zune is not an iPod killer. Sure, its a decent personal media player, but its not going to convert the masses away from the iPod. At least not yet. That doesnt ne...
Abstract: Introduction Microsoft advertises the Zune with the catchphrase "Welcome to the Social." So what is "The Social?" Judging by televised Zune commercials, it appears to be quite the party. Commercials often depict snowboarders riding on chairlifts or kid...
Large, scratch resistant color screen, Good sound quality, Intuitive interface, Includes FM radio and video playback, Im down with brown, baby
Ridiculous Zune Marketplace points system, PlaysForSure doesnt PlayAtAll, Mediocre battery life, A bit heavy and clunky (compared to youknowwhos player)

Attractive packaging
Competitive price
Large display
Boring aesthetics
Poor quality ear buds
Closed system
Not compatible with PlaysForSure songs
Credit purchasing system is a joke
The Microsoft Zune is one of those products that you will want to avoid at all costs; at least this first generation. In comparison to other media players on the market, the Zune offers no clear advantage. It has an audio and video library with less de...
Great industrial design; large bright screen; built-in Wi-Fi;, excellent navigation and UI;, nice FM radio.
Limited codec support on device and player software; no podcast support; no TV or movie service; no Vista support.
An almost-great product that seems rushed to market before it could add some crucial software features. Not the portable to own right now, but keep your eye on the software updates. ...
