x2

You can see the chipset at Zune-Online. From there you can do research about the chips if you'd like, but yes, the Zune is considered to have one of the best sounds out there.

I don't know why he had to send it back, sorry to hear it. I've put mine through hell in back in the few months I've had it, and no problems.

I use mp3s for most things that aren't sonyconnect downloads. I think gapless works, but I use shuffle most of the time so I'm not positive.

I picked one up, where can I find the new firmware for the zune? The one that gives all the features of the the new zune 2. thanks!

I really want one, but it doesn't work on Linux... and I need a larger drive anyways (even the 80GB Zune is too small).

aaugh!!!!

HARD DRIVE HACK!

Hell, I've got 2 now. One for video, one for music. Are you one of those people that needs all 200GB of their music collection with them at once?

It's not being released til mid-November. See more information on the Zune 2 thread.

I picked up a zune two days before I picked up a macbook...what the hell.


I have two computers - one laptop for home, macbook for school. Just gave sister the ipod...hmm... time to steal back?

If zune has better sq though, I am all for it.

Why won't this deal die! Every time I look at it I'm tempted to buy a Zune. I just need to keep reminding myself that it doesn't have gapless, or folder browsing, or drag and drop... must not buy!

 

[Undecided]

Go ahead buy it, I dare you!

 

[jfindon]

I won't buy it just because it's a refurb. Don't like those.

DO ITTTTT!!!!

No gapless. Drag and drop with the program, but not through explorer. And, well, there is a portable hard drive hack, if that's what you meant by folder browsing.

MUCH better sq. And if you just picked up a new macbook, chances are you can boot windows. And if you can boot windows, you can run Zune. No?
