you'll be able to share short videos. most likely just the videos on the zune marketplace.

And The Social is now the whole online zunetag thing that they've made. it's not part of the advertising campaign it's part of zune. ]]>Nov 6th 2007 6:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 7th 2007 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 6:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 7:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Re-stocked with thousands of new tracks, podcasts, videos, and DRM-free MP3s" in the email.

I've made my choice for the year (I bought an iPT) but I'm thinking next season the tides may turn.

Whether or not they use the term "social" isn't going to influence my decision, but the hardware will.]]>Nov 6th 2007 6:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 7:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 8:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/
Nevertheless, a year is a long time. Even the zune could morph into something with far less suck to it.]]>Nov 6th 2007 8:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/The iPod touch is over priced and has way to little storage and no expansion. Besides everyone compares the Wifi on the iTouch to Zune Wifi, when they are completely different. Zune Wifi is ad hoc, iTouch is infrastructure.

@David Clark
I totally agree. I have a 770, and it blows the pants off of anything. Throw in a large mem card, and its amazing.

I personally bought a Zune30 on woot for $105. I was going to wait and get an 80, but for that price, I couldnt resist.

I must say, I like the Zune alot more than iPod video I had, and just as much as the SanDisk players I have used.

Based solely on the functions a PMP is supposed to have, I would go Zune. Add in the sub par sharing, larger screen, and actual updates (not these crap security updates that the iPod gets, I know they got games, but thats all they really have gotten) and its amazing.

I wouldnt have anything else on the market. ]]>Nov 6th 2007 9:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/You get to watch every third frame of a video for up to three days.]]>Nov 6th 2007 7:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 10:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 7:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 7:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/

When they said that they were getting rid of "The Social", I believe you read it wrong...I'm pretty sure they were leaving behind the tagline "Welcome to the Social" for their new one, "You make it you."

As you can clearly see in the devices though, they call wireless sharing "Social" on the Zune interface. So instead of saying "When you go into Wireless Sharing" they say "When you go into the Social".]]>Nov 6th 2007 7:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 8:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/personally I don't care what tagline they use, version one works like a charm for me, I can only imagine version two with it's updated interface, firmware and the new marketplace and all the other new features.

Please, try to think things through for once. Zune not only will have a Social option on the menu, but a site called the Social for networking. MS was going to abandon "Welcome to the Social" for "You make it you". They will still call their wireless sharing and internet sharing "the Social". The Social is still in existence, and probably will be for a while. MS just dropped it into the background, choosing to focus on the player's customization this time around. So, get used to it. The social is still here. The social will be here. There will not be a "Goodbye from the Social" anytime soon.]]>Nov 6th 2007 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/
1. We already knew that Zune team are going to have shared short clips through Zune Marketplace.

2. Social is a freakin feature you lame dumb! It was also the tag line of the G1 Zune but since it is going to be a world wide web feature they decided to drop the word "Social" from the tag line in order to give the new "Social" feature the same importance of other new stuff in the Zune 2.]]>Nov 6th 2007 8:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 8:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 6th 2007 11:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 7th 2007 3:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/Nov 7th 2007 4:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/
I'm sure you're aware that when people can't attack the ideas, they attack the person presenting them.

It always amazes me how quickly people become grammarians in order to completely miss the point of a post. :)]]>Nov 7th 2007 9:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/
I actually just bought a Zune - one of the brown $80 refurbs from woot.com. It's a nice piece of hardware - decent interface (not quite iPod but way better than my old Creative Zen Micro) and very nice screen and device, but the software is awful - it literally took me 3 hours to get it run on my PC, and the fact that it scours your hard drive and tries to cramma-lamma all your music in the device the first time you run it is a pain when you have a 35 gig mp3 collection and a 30 gig Zune.]]>Nov 6th 2007 8:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/06/new-zunes-to-share-video/

Something of interest from the gizmodo article:
"We spoke with Microsoft and they told us that no, the new Zunes cannot transfer video from device to device..."

You mean, Gizmodo actually asked Microsoft about this rumor like real reporters?? Whoever heard of such a thing!!
