[citation][nom]theubersmurf[/nom]You know it's funny, I get the feeling you're a hater of apple if choosing a well established piece of hardware raises so much of your ire. |fanboy|=|hater|:: roughly, the absolute value of a fanboy is equal to the absolute value of a hater. I don't see the difference between the two, simply one is positive and one negative.[/citation]
WHAT!?!?!? NO COMMENTING ON MY AWESOME USAGE OF "&⌠╢├$♣nw╟Rü" THE CLEVERNESS ALONE SHOULD HAVE EARNED ME MY OWN COMDEY SPECIAL!!!!
Hahaha, in all seriousness though. Im not a hater of Apple products by any means, I have owned and still own a few apple products. However, in my personal experience, I enjoy my Zune much more than my previous iPODs! Maybe its because I have never had a problem with the battery life being half full after an entire night of charging my Zune, or the unexplainable reoccuring Sad Faces that cause for me to format my entire device, or the freezing/restarting, or the slow uninspiring interface. No product is perfect, but MY experience with BOTH products makes me a fan of one over the other. If the Zune were to do me wrong, I would most definitely look elsewhere and possibly move over to another product, especaially if it did it continuously regardless of which generation product I paid my hard earned money for! I can understand a bit of brand loyalty if it comes from years of happy reliable service, but to blindly follow Apple or MS or Sony or Chevy or ____ just beacuse its the in thing, thats just plain stupid!
However I must state that I absolutely cannot stand people that like to post nonsense talking trash about a product in which they most probably have never used let alone touched, because its from a competing company than who they hold some insane allegiance toward.
Bottom line is that they both offer something to their users, IMO the Zune does it at a better price with better hardware and software, again that is my personal opinion that comes from my personal experience.
