Currently my ever growing music library far exceeds 8GB and 16GB, and 32GB is really pushing it in the long term. I might be able to compromise with 64GB though, if only for that redesigned UI and beautiful touch screen. Though I'd probably wait for the 2nd gen Zune HD, just because I know something better is coming this Fall.]]>Apr 16th 2010 12:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/
I understand needing space for video and the hundreds of thousands of apps the Zune Marketplace has, but do people really have 120GB of music they are constantly shuffling?

I love my 16GB, and I'm an avid music "collector" but I have no where near 16GB of music I'd want on a device to listen to. I get bored of songs, deleted or unsync, why keep it around if you no longer need it?]]>Apr 16th 2010 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/
And even more puzzling: why do you understand people that carry hundreds of videos with them at all times, but not people that have a lot of music? Video are mostly one-view things anyway...]]>Apr 16th 2010 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/For me, I like having my whole media collection on the go as well as not having to compromise with having to choose what to take with me. ]]>Apr 16th 2010 12:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/
Also, do you know how much a video takes up in space? I just synced a soccer game that was 1.9GB. It's kinda hard to find1.9GB of music that you like in the same amount of time it takes to find one video to sync and watch. Videos take up more space so it's understandable to have a huge capacity device to sync whole seasons of shows and whatnot.

Sorry, just baffles me that people keep in interest in 120GB of music at all times. Seems like you just want to have it there and not really listen to the older stuff. Music hoarders!]]>Apr 16th 2010 12:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/16/microsofts-zune-hd-64-starts-sliding-out-unboxing-proves-the-b/
