I want an mp3 player. I've got a 22GB music collection, so I want a 30GB+ model, and something that will play video. I hate iPods. Yes, I've owned one. So I'm looking at the Zune. It looks pretty neat, I like the 3" screen(I know its the same resolution) and the FM tuner. Another that I'm looking at is the Creative Zen Vision M 30GB. This has a 2.5" screen. They can be gotten with a 4.6" screen, but for much more $$. My brother gave me $150 to subsidize the cost of an mp3 player for Christmas, and I don't want to spend more than $250 total. Recommendations? Hate? Spite?
Edit:
I don't mind that PlaysForSure/iTunes won't work, I mostly rip CDs to DRM-free mp3s.
I don't mind that its Wifi is limited, I don't expect to run into any other Zune owners anyway.
I DO care about the ability to play AVI/MPEG/WMV.
I don't need it to do anything but play music/video, I already have a PDA.
I don't listen to podcasts and don't expect to(but this may change)
Can any owner of a zune post or PM me how the software is? Ease of use, pitfalls, speed...
