1 out of 5 stars Zune 30gb Doesn't Cut It   July 23, 2008
I gave my wife the Zune 30gb mp3 player as a birthday gift. It was a bad choice right out of the box. The skimpy setup pamphlet actually says, "It's as easy as 1, 2, 3" to get started. Just insert the set up CD, follow the prompts. Well, the prompts never came and the unit wasn't set up. We looked for more detailed instructions in Help, looked online, looked in the box to see if anything was missing and found nothing. There is no instruction manual in print or online that we could find. Very frustrating. Microsoft has to do better. I returned the Zune unused and will replace it with a Sony 8gb unit.


4 out of 5 stars positive review   July 23, 2008
My friend lent me his Zune 30gig and its a pretty good player. It's actually much better than the iPod Classic if you want to watch movies, simply by virtue of the screen. It's big, bright, and clear.

The interface is decent, but I keep acting like its an iPod (which is not surprising, I had a 20gig for 3+ years but it recently broke). The PC software is kind of spotty, it's not very clear and the tri-paned interface does not feel as intuitive or clear as iTunes (which, to be fair, I have been using for more like 4 or 5 years).

If you have a lot of music and/or movies, I would definitely recommend the Zune 80gig over the iPod Classic. The iPod's scroll wheel in big libraries is less workable than the Zune's scrolling (no, really...) and the larger Zune screen is much better for video content. The Zune's feature set obviously does not come close to the iPod Touch, though, so for smaller libraries that would probably be my recommendation.

I'm not really sure where Microsoft is planning to go with the Zune. They want to carve out something in a market dominated by iPod but shown no indication of attacking or matching it in its newest incarnation. The Zune is a great product compared to the old iPods but lacking versus the new one.



5 out of 5 stars Want an MP3? Go for it   July 21, 2008
My first MP3 and I'm very satisfied. Easy to use, long battery life (shut off the wireless and keep the backlight to a minimum) and good quality. Portable, yet not small enough to "forget" in a pocket and launder.

Good amount of storage - I have several operas and Broadway shows (yeah, I'm a dork) and I still have plenty of room for my other "one-offs" tunes as well as several movies for when I travel. 8 GB wouldn't have been enough for me and 80 was overkill - this is perfect.

I read the reviews both good and bad; have to say I've had zero problems with this. Sooooo easy. Just wish it came in orange. I got the white because it was cheaper, it looks nicer than the pictures.



3 out of 5 stars Its nice but it has software issues   July 21, 2008
im not talking about the software being glitchy it just isnt very good, my software does not recognize the fact that i do want that music on my zune just not on my computer, because of this it is incredibly frustrating because it deletes the music off of your zune, so you have to go dig through your cd's to find the cd and rip it again just so you can put it on your zune, it has good music and video quality, and other than the pain it can be to get the software updated, it works well and i like it


5 out of 5 stars I love my zune   July 20, 2008
