Even with VH1 or Mtv content, that is still pathetic. I'm sorry, but the last thing I want to watch on my Zune is Next, or My Sweet Sixteen. I love the 80's is good though...but still, thats all VH1 has going for it in mind opinion. ]]>Jun 18th 2007 4:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 4:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/
And since Zunes are somewhat more durable than iPods, those million are probaly the real thing. ]]>Jun 18th 2007 5:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 6:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/

Still, have any of you honestly ever seen a person using a Zune. A million distributed throughout the entire US would be like a dozen people owning one in every large city.

I heard there was a company that was going to produce fake iPod skins for Zune users but they decided they could make a couple of million bucks in one week selling "I love my iPhone" stickers for $5 apiece.

A Zune, some country music, a pair of sod-kickers and a ten-gallon hat is my type of life-style. Ya-hoo.]]>Jun 18th 2007 7:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/
Jesus, when the Hell will you guys learn that people have an opinion. The Zune is better (technically) to its equivalent iPod. So, uh... The size is the only problem... Wait, not its not, because unless your pockets are the size of a deck of cards that have been cut in half, you shouldn't have any problems. Besides, nowadays (unless you are emo) you have baggy ass clothes (or normal sized clothing), so it doesn't matter.

Just get a grip. Zune has the 30Gb iPod beat. Easy. Remember the size of the first few generations of iPod? Same size as a Zune, but with less features (thats to be expected). Once Microsoft rolls out the next set of Zunes, then those will probably be the same size or smaller than the iPod video. I just want to hear the complaining you guys make when you realize the new iPod video will be larger than this iPod video.]]>Jun 18th 2007 10:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 19th 2007 2:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 20th 2007 3:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 18th 2007 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/
Zune battery sucks my 80bg ipod lasts longer. about 19hrs on my MP3's
Zune Screen is not as Bright as my 80gb iPod

Zune Does not scratch ipod does (with the hard case for my ipod its still smaller than the zune)
Zune has a larger screen

The Zune is better than it's EQUIVALENT iPod. The 30 gigger. The 80GB is a lot more expensive, and besides, what you said about the 80GB iPod being smaller than a Zune WITH a hard case is total bullshit, because the Zune isn't much bigger at all. The hard case would, in fact, make it larger than the Zune. So you are either lying, or don't know what you are talking about.]]>Jun 18th 2007 10:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 19th 2007 6:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 19th 2007 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/
Microsoft might, just might, be planning to improve the Zune. That would shocking, especially considering that they said they were going to dominate the market out of the starting gate.

Oh wait, they said they had a modest launch goal and were adapting a long term strategy.

URGE is done by Viacom - who owns MTV, VH1, and CMT - and is - as far as I can tell - identical in every way to the Zune Marketplace, down to song selection and interface. The Zune Marketplace simply has a different CSS stylesheet (seriously) and a different Editorial staff (different featured content).

This is no doubt just a relic.

How did it get there?

Global Search & Replace.

In order to avoid screwing up and referring to "URGE" when they mean "Zune," Microsoft programmers - who, after all, created URGE - would do a Search & Replace across all Project files.

Honestly, this is pretty specious to be posting.]]>Jun 18th 2007 7:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/Jun 19th 2007 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/

and
radio reception is s*it

Scrolling on the Zune is ten times easier than on an iPod, because unlike the iPod, you just hold a button. Not twirl your thumb around it like a retard.

Radio reception is shit? Its now obvious you have never held, used, or even seen a Zune in real life. Radio reception is fantastic. I use it fairly often as I don't have much new music right now. It is better than most of the after market radio receivers for iPods, actually.

Get a grip dude, you don't even know what the fuck you are talking about.]]>Jun 19th 2007 12:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/

The people who are bashing the zune just have issues with MS , as for the size, I love the size, shit it has a bigger screen duh!
Navigation is better that the ipod, I had one.
Battery life is sweet.

I can understand the legit complaints about wifi sharing, and the lack of Windows Media Center integration. I can't understand for the life of me, the sheer vitriol towards an inanimate device. It's an mp3 player. It does exactly what it says. It looks nice, and it's got a big screen for video. End of story. Microsoft isn't an evil empire, and you all aren't crusaders for some great rebellion. Apple is another large corporation just like Microsoft, and they've crushed plenty of small businesses in order to protect their trademarks and intellectual property.]]>Jun 19th 2007 2:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/
I think Apple should take note and update their interface from that totally 1990's display.

I agree the Zune has its faults; size, marketplace content. But what did Apple have when it started? ]]>Jun 19th 2007 4:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/zune took the ipod and looked at it so they knew
they had the best mp3 and made theres

this whole thing would be people bashin the ipod and some people protecting the ipod if zune came out first and u know it

just like every thing else
playstation is on their third
xbox on their second

xbox has ps3 beat in everything
the original had ps2 beat especially since ps2 was the best so xbox made theres do everything the ps2 did and more

so just face it
if it werent for ipod
zune would be nowhere]]>Jun 19th 2007 8:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/18/zune-marketplace-to-get-mtv-vh1-and-cmt-content/the zune was supposed to be an iPod killer
durring x-mas
zune held a whopping 6% of sales
sansa 10%
ipod 48%
creative 4%
the remaining was like sony and other shit

some iPod killer
when MS "we expect over one million sold in release month"
after xmas there was about 400,000 sold

gates was said to have bought the remaining 600,000 and put them at his property
