Why the Zune is better then the iPod

[ncba93ivyase]

Also, the ability to buy out everything a smaller company has (AKA, stealing) is not an advantage.

Really? I wasn't aware that one company willingly selling its material to another for a large sum of money was another term for stealing.


Learn something new everyday, I guess.

The small companies are helpless. They don't have enough money, so they can't do shit. The large company loses only pocket change.

Example: There's a small coffee shop in a small town. They have fair prices, a fine selection, and the best damn coffee and snacks you can get anywhere. Pretty much everyone goes there on their way to work, except for a few that say "wtf no this stor sux cuz evry1 go thar."

Eventually, a Starbucks is constructed on the other side of the street. Billboards are slapped everywhere and everyone knows what Starbucks is. The "nonconformists" think "THIS IS BETTER CUZ IT'S NEW, I KNOW WHAT IT IS, AND I'LL BE THE FIRST THERE." Then, since everyone has heard of the company for years, they decide this is where they have to go. They're drawn in by these damn "tall" coffees, exoticly named products, and high advertisements.

The store across the street with a smaller menu but more delicious coffee burns down the next day.

Disadvantages of the Zune:
1: Made by Microsoft, so you know you're buying shit.

Opinion, lol

Xbox
Xbox 360
Microsoft Windows

All are known for horrible product "quality."

I never heard those products being known for horrible product quality. Are you pulling these things out of your totally opinionated ass?

And yes, being able to buy out stuff from smaller companies is an advantage. Just so you know, that doesn't make Microsoft cruel and heartless. Apple just wants your money as much as Microsoft does, and face it, Microsoft is better at it, and they'll spend money to make more. If Apple had as much money as Microsoft, there's no doubt in my mind that they would do the same.

Xbox house fires and faulty AC adapters.

Ring of death.

Microsoft Windows.

The Zen is superior in every way. If you truly wanted features and low price, you'd get a Zen, wouldn't you? Of course not, you had to go by brand name. People run Windows, so they assume the Zune must be the best thing for their OS. Most people that run Macs assume the iPod must be the best. The Zen is the best, but who's heard of Creative? No one, so in the average consumer's mind, it's shit.

"Better then"?

It is a nice product but it's not better than the iPod, the only thing I like about it is the screen's size. voomts;

Lock'd because we now know the average consumers and those that try to be "unique" are dipshits.

I agree with Lawlz. Microsoft products have a knack for breaking very quickly. I had a friend who bought a 360, it red ringed within a week.

These testimonials are retarded, I could say that my iPod Mini broke 2 weeks after I got it (which it did, so I got a new one), and that my launch 360 has had one disc read error since I got it (which is also true) but of course, nobody would give two shits.

Who the fuck cares what kind of MP3 player they use? As long as it plays music, whats the difference.

Every product can break; Microsoft just has a higher ratio of broken products compared to companies like Apple.

I clearly would want the inferior MP3 player that costs the same...

The PS3 was available for just $20 more than the Elite, but you didn't buy one? It supports Wifi, 3rd party hardware (have fun with your expensive proprietary HD's), BD-ROM, and loads of other shit your inferior 360 doesn't.

You better sell your 360 and get a PS3, because you're using an inferior game console.

RELOCKED.

I didn't buy a 360 Elite. china;

I must commend you though, these are some mighty fine arguments you're putting up.

Does not change the fact that we're debating iPod vs. Zune. The difference between between Zune/iPod to 360/PS3 is that you can play every song on both the iPod/Zune (unless they were bought off of Zune Marketplace/iTunes, which I would seriously lol if people did that here) and that 360/PS3 actually have different software. I would take the 360 Elite over the PS3 because of the superior library of games, while you can't say the iPod or Zune have a superior library of anything over each other, because they play the same types of media.
