Zune

Sounds good.

christ knows it's probs better than the ipod. my mini which is now the old age of 19 months struggles to play for longer than 30-40 mins. fucking disgrace.

i think the rrp of the zune is about $229, canny price that for 30gb.

who makes zune?

microsoft

should be out soon. not sure if beofre xmas or not though

Looks decent, but it will be crippled by copy protection bollocks and proprietary software.

There'll be new firmware hacked for it before xmas I bet.

I'm considering getting an ipod now Rockbox are making firmware for it....let's wait and see what happens with this.

Completely shit that it takes amateurs in their spare time to improve the firmware that comes with these things

My mini broke the other week, think I'm gonna stick with ipod though. Might get a new 80gb one if the prices drop a bit for xmas.

what does rockbox offer to itunes 7? the new gapless play is spot on

Is it actual gapless tracks though, or do you have to reencode it as one huge track with markers on? :think:

i cant believe how quickly people go thru ipods, i've had mine for 2 years and it's not broke on me once.

watch the fucker break over the weekend now i've said that

I dropped mine

it's gapless.....mmm..........
