Review of the Microsoft Zune

I realize that I haven't written on here for over a month. What can I say? I have been reading from my list of books. Let me not forget to mention that my life is incredibly boring and very little happens day to day. With that being said I have decided to start reviewing things such as movies, books, electronic devices, etc here on this very blog.
Today I'll start with my review of the Microsoft Zune. People often ask me if i like it and that's part of the reason that I am writing this post. I got the Zune from Woot about 8 months ago. I bought it because it was only $100, and has 30 Gig of memory (that's only $3.33 per gig!!!)
I bought the brown but now I wish I would've gone with the black, because I like the look of the black ones more.
I have had a couple of mp3 players and I think this is better than most players and is about on par with the iPod(I write this comparing it only to the iPod classic, the iPod touch is pretty incredible).
The playback sounds great, the video screen is bigger than the standard ipod, it comes with a FM tuner, and the ability to share songs with other zunes as well as wireless syncing with your computer with its built in WiFi.
I like the interface, but it can be a little slower to move through all of your files compared to the click wheel of the ipod or the scroll bar on a creative player.
The thing I like the most about it is that I can take a song off of the zune and put it onto another computer. (this can be done on an ipod but can be a little tricky)
I do have two complaints about the zune.
First is how hard it is to rip videos onto it. Software to put video on to the ipod is abounding, the same is not true with the zune. There are several hoops to jump through to get a video on there.
made it's own software for the The second problem I have is the zune software. I am still scratching my head why Microsoft zune. I mean they have a flagship media player that is on all PCs with Windows Media P yet they still made some clunky, hard to use, and some slow (sometimes I think my computer's frozen when I use it) software that really does suck compared to itunes or even windows media player.
Well anyway there are several things to consider when buying an electronic device, however I have no regrets on this purchase, and I have really enjoyed it.
