Microsoft Zune vs. Apple iPod?

I just recently heard of the ZUNE from Microsoft. Can anyone tell me comparisons of the Zune and an iPod?

Before we start.. No. The Zune is NOT FAT. Ipods are only smaller by .1" in all dimensions. That's not big at all. Plus people compare the Nano to the Zune (30GB) a lot. Those people are insane.

Comparing Ipod 80GB to Zune 80GB:

Width:

Ipod - 2.4 In.

Zune - 2.4 In.

Depth:

Ipod - .6 In.

Zune - .5 In. (SCANDALOUS SLANDER!!?!#411)

Height:

Ipod - 4.3 In.

Zune - 4.3 In.

Weight:

Ipod - 5.5 Oz.

Zune - 4.5 Oz.

Screen:

Ipod - 2.5 In.

Zune - 3.2 In.

Even if you're thinking of getting a 4GB / 8GB Zune, the Ipod nano is only .1" smaller than it (In all dimensions except depth, which is the same at .3").

Go with the Zune.

1. Much better Support - All devices get the same update. Whether it鈥檚 a 30GB, or a 4, or an 80 GB Zune, they all get the same support. Apple doesn't give the same update to all their music players.

2. The screen is much better - Compare the small squinty iPod screen to a large Zune screen. Obviously much better to look at, and it鈥檚 made of glass.

3. Personalize it 鈥?You can customize your Zune with background images (they look great because it takes part of the image and doesn鈥檛 try to fit the whole thing on the screen), a case that can go with your color, or even do laser engraving with neat background art.
