  • Abstract:  On the surface, Zune has a reputation as an iPod imitator. It even has its own version of the iTunes store, Zune Markeplace, but Microsoft knows well Zune's reputation as an iPod clone, which is why the mega company has worked hard to introduce Wi-Fi feat...

  • Abstract:  Microsoft Zune The second generation of the Zune is far from the brown brick that was almost universally laughed at when it appeared just over a year ago. Much like the Xbox, this second revision is a serious competitor.My last visit to the States coin...

  • While Microsoft has made solid progress with the Zune, the device still isnt compellingly more attractive than its competitors. Its not out in the UK as yet, but at $149 for the 4GB version and $199 for the 8GB version, in the US its priced identic...

  • The 80GB Zune is a decent choice as an 80GB MP3 player. It sounds great, its interface isnt a hindrance, and its pricing is right in line with the competition. Accessories and features such as premium headphones and an FM tuner give it at least one a...

  • Bright screen great for movies. Excellent UI. Very well built. Wi-Fi lets you share music.
  • Desktop software doesn’t support podcasts. Online store lacks movies and TV. You need to buy blocks of credit in advance to buy music. Shared music can only be listened to three times. No PlaysForSure support.
  • Microsofts Zune doesn’t ooze the iPod’s svelte sexiness, but inside that boxy casing beats a high tech heart with a state-of-the-art user interface, wireless networking, radio and a killer screen for movies. And it will only improve ...

  • The WiFi allows users to easily access and share music in several different ways,
  • All the special features are directed at the music capacity; we wish there were more movie features.
  • The Zune 120 is focused on music, but it still provides an excellent hand-held movie experience....

  • Incredible 3.3-inch OLED display; small, lightweight; sensitive capacitive touch screen; high-def 720p video output; smooth Web navigation; refined FM and HD radio tuner
  • No open App Store; initial stuttering on video output; no tabbed browsing; weak Wi-fi reception
  • The Zune HD is an extremely refined personal media player and should be the video junkie's player of choice....
