User Submitted Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player (Red) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-09-14 is good... is good. Good things about the zune: -Accepts lots of file format. -Doesn't have the annoying touch wheel like Ipod. -Clear easy to use interface -Has a normal FM radio (awesome obvious feature) -Good Wifi -Clean clear large screen -Nice weight and size. (Not for everyone, but I like the weight). Feels more robust than ipod. -awesome connectivity with Xbox and Windows network -you know that a large percentage of your money isn't going to tediously trendy commercials and marketing. Bad things about Zune: -Software is slow. (PC, not device firmware) -Screen is relatively easy to break (Get a case and you'll be fine). Mine broke, but i bought a replacement for $40. Took me about an hour to swap and it's good as new. -Not as many accessories as ipod, but getting better. No brainer. Get a Zune. Date: 2008-09-07 Absolute Perfection - With Firmware Update To Version 2.5 I was given the Zune 30GB as a gift about 2 months ago and I completely love it! The only thing I would change would be to gain the extra space by getting the 80GB version. Other than that, I have no complaints!! With the Firmware update to 2.5, the Zune 30GB is an incredible Digital Music Player!!! The user interface is very intuitive and allows quick access to your music, video, picture and podcast collection! I've never owned an iPod but have played around with friends' and I must say that the organization and user interface are very similar...however I do prefer the Zune over the iPod. It seems to be easier to control scrolling with the Zune interface. I was initially very frustrated with the Zune Software. It was extremely sluggish and comsumed a large amount of CPU. Through blogs and my own research, I found that disabling the Graphics and Video Enhancement solved this problem immediately. To access this, open the Zune Software, select settings, then software, then display. You can then disable the Graphics and Video Enhancement. You must then shutdown the Zune software and reopen it... Problem solved. The Zune software is a joy to use...the album art and the browsing experience is a pleasure. Excellent job Microsoft!!!!! I would definitely recommend the Zune! You won't be disappointed. DID I MENTION THAT I LOVE THE ZUNE SOFTWARE!!!! Good luck on your purchase!!! Date: 2008-09-07 zune is the best I love the Zune !!! although i did have problems installing the cd to my computer and had to try many times. Other than that the screen is nice and big for display and movies. also u can change the background to make it more personal. the sound is great and the program updates and puts music you just added to your library without you having to do it. very simple to use there is also a radio . the downsides no clock or games. Date: 2008-09-02 Average. Its thick. Very thick. Its heavy. The screen and the controls scratch easily, and it only plays wmv's. i've had this for about a year now, and i have been bored of it since the beginning. it is a disgrace to Microsoft and a rip off to the ipod. the pros: its a tank. its virtually indestructible. Date: 2008-08-31 zune great device, have had no problems with it. works well with my dell computer transfering the wma files over.
