I have seen more iPhones in the wild than Zunes and I live in a country that sells Zunes but not yet iPhones…

the new zunes aren’t so bad after all… the updated firmware (also available to the older zunes) is quite all right. what was so horrible about the 1st gen zune was mainly its looks (and maybe the crippled “social” functions). and the incredibly craptastic ad campaigns didn’t help much either, i guess.

for me, there is no alternative to an ipod mainly because i have all my music organized in itunes and want it to stay that way. there is simply no way to make other DAPs interact with itunes, and furthermore few players even come with software working on a mac. so us mac users are kinda stuck with ipods i guess. not that that’s a bad thing.

honestly never saw any…

I was interested in zune but when I visited the site it blocked me from even viewing it. Limited to US viewers… That’s an even stranger limit …
