How about bringing the Zune HD and Zune store outside of the USA? It would be nice if the iTunes store prices were lower here, since they are far, far higher than in the USA.

Only if "better" doesn't take into account sound quality. Some people can't stand crappy bitrates.

Some people can't stand crappy bitrates.[/citation]I doubt you could tell the difference between raw CD audio and 320kbps WMA, encoded from the same source. If you're comparing to 128kbps MP3s, yeah I'd say the difference is pretty obvious.

No, I can't. But some people are picky and can tell the difference. It's like the 60FPS vs 120FPS argument.
