Zune

Wells......I got an older 30GB Zune off of ebay in the mail today. (and by older I just mean a slightly fatter not HD before this generation Zune :P)

But anyway, I really could care less if it was about half the width it is now, and if it was HD. (as I mostly got it hold hold my big playlist and more to come)

Soooooooo now to get to some details.

It came with a leather case and a retractable USB cable and of course itself...in black.

I got it for about 70 bucks with shipping and handling.

So...I opened it and started playing around with it (okay so I've never used anything but a generic MP3 player that has a blue light up display and scrolling text telling me what song is playing, so sue me :P) I added my whole playlist that you see in my interests list (give or take a few songs), a couple videos, some pics (mostly so I could have a wallpaper background), downloaded some Zune games (of course getting the un-official Zune vs. ipod game :evilgrin:), and favorited some local radio stations.

I thought it was pretty cool all the free stuff that you could get on a Zune (considering that it is Microsoft and they do tend to charge people for a lot of things *whistles*) so I set up my Zune account and synced it up with all my household devices and now'm ready to go!

 

Okay....you guys had to obviously know I wouldn't be buying an ipod okay? It would be like......sacrilege! :P

Aside from the stupidly huge cariety of apps available for the ipod, I find the Zune superior or basiclly the same on every feature anyway.

 

One thing I think would be very interesting to look into, would be designing a portable media device that combines the great features of ipod and Zune, if not also improving them. To make a better product for the consumers who like both, or the fanatics of either company who would never buy something opposed to the competitor. I'm actually serious about looking into design on something like that once I go to Western Tech College for computer tech.

 

But anyway, if you read this kinda dragged out entry this far, I'll let you go now..... after I give you a free coat! Courtesy of the moronic soul of a discoing fool!

 

So remember, you insane little BZPers you, I'll always be a Microsoft freak (don't get me wrong I had nothing against Apple before they started their whole anti Microsoft stuff, they really lowered themselves to constantly ripping on the competitor for advertisement, but now, and forever more, I am completely pro-Microsoft) Oh.....and disco is of course in this year. :P

And a good choice you have made. I've recently purchased a 120GB Black Zune, but now that the HD has come out, I'm finding myself drooling over the black 32GB with a Seattle Sounders logo and my name emblazoned on the back. ^_^

Yeah I was looking at some of the awesome Zune Originals, but it's pretty far outta my price range at the moment. :P

And thanks.

Wait, only $70? I haven't tried looking at ebay yet...and I really need a good mp3 player.

 

Was there one slightly bigger than 30Gbs but smaller than the 80 one?

Actually, the only reason I could afford something like that is because I know some employees who could get discount prices. :P

I did find some bigger ones, but the only ones I found bigger than 30 were about 100 bucks or more......or they were sold cheap because they were busted. :P
