120GB iPod Classic for $240

If I were to choose between a 120GB Zune and a 120GB iPod (if they were the same price), I would definitely pick the iPod.

I'm not sure... I'll go for the bigger screen in the zune

If I were to choose between a 120GB Zune and a 120GB iPod (if they were the same price), I would definitely pick the iPod.

The Zune has a larger screen, wider feature set, and in my opinion, a nicer looking interface. I think it comes down to whether you prefer iTunes to the Zune software, or if you already own some iPod accessories. Those two withstanding, the Zune seems like a better deal, especially with Microsoft's track record of providing firmware updates well after a device has been discontinued.

I personally have both a iPod classic (80gb from last year) and a Zune 80. The iPod now gathers dust in a corner somewhere.

If you really want a bigger screen, just get a iPod Touch for $20 less.

We all know that iPods are the most expensive MP3s on the market. Before the 2nd generation of Zunes came out, the old ones were selling for less than $100 new! You would NEVER see a new iPod being sold for that low.

My prediction is that in less than a year, these will drop below $100 also.

The biggest problem with that suggestion is that high capacity iPod Touches cost an arm and a leg...and the capacity isn't even that high.

Interesting though, this is the first time I've ever seen the iPod's high price cited as a benefit.

Wow, can you be any more obvious with padding your freakin' post count iceui2? will you freakin' just go away already. I would buy the zune just because you recommend the iPod.

Let me know when you get it!

The zune is a superior to the ipod on just about every level, the things about it that are not superior are equivalent to that of the ipods.

In all honesty, the reason the new zunes back then were selling for 100$ new was because of the mass botting of club live. People would use a program called nuke, and in 2 seconds they'd have enough points for a zune as a prize.

Zune SUCKS. IPOD ROCKS AND ZUNE WILL DISAPPEAR TO OBLIVION.

Alright, stop the iPod/Zune bashing.

If you think it's a good deal, buy it. If you don't think this is a good deal, don't buy it.

End of discussion.

I love my 2G 80GB Zune. Owned an iPod 5G 30gb before it, hated it and iTunes. Zune software isn't bad that bad.

Yowzer, I see some red for some of the posts. Kind of ironic that the info on the free zune 3 firmware upgrade was posted here by iceui2.
I'm an audiobook fan and it looks like the Zune finally get's Audible (audo books) support with the version 3 upgrade.

I have a Zune 30, and it's nice that Microsoft keeps supporting it with (free!!) firmware upgrades.

Its now $250 again.

Someone is selling it there for 230 + 5 shipping tho'.

I love my 30gb Zune. I just wish it did xvid - it certainly has the power for it. I've made XNA games for it and it sure can handle a lot. The touch squirkle control on the 2nd gen Zunes work really nice. If I was in the market, I'd look for 80GBs to go on clearance somewhere.

Can explain to me how botting a site can cause Zune's to be sold for $100 by web retailers?

EDIT:
And the new software is pretty cool. I've not been a big fan of using my laptop for playing music until now. The update of a few days ago is excellent.

I think it was referring to the market on eBay being saturated and causing the price to be around $100 or so
