Zune: How We’ve Lived With It For Three Months

Gizmodo’s Jason Chen reports back after 3 months of using the Zune…

“So would we change our recommendation of the iPod over the Zune? No. All the reasons we had to pick one or the other still stands. If you want movies, TV, a larger music library, a touch sensitive scroll wheel and more accessories, you should still go with the iPod. If you want an FM tuner, music rentals, and a larger screen, there’s the Zune.” 

My thoughts are quite similar. I have used the Zune as my daily driver for the past 3 months (or however long it’s been out…) and I really have been satified. I don’t do podcast listening on my MP3 Players, I don’t squirt songs, I love the concept of all you can eat downloads, and I don’t like the Apple elitist attitude. All that said, the Zune works quite well for me. The Dell DJ did fine too. I am optimistic for the future of Zune, but for it to be a smash hit, there are many small little things that Microsoft must do better!
