I mean we still dont have the thousands of available apps that they do, we still aren't able to buy movies on the Zune Marketplace, and Itunes stuff is now all DRM-free, Zune's isn't. Yes, this Zune HD does look cool, but what about it is going to make people stop buying Ipods and iTouches for this? I think ive heard its only going to be able to hold up to 16 GB. I realize it's not very common to start off with a giant capacity for a new product but still. And with Apple, supposedly to release a 60 some GB iTouch this summer, there's no way i think we'll be able to pull ahead of Apple. I think the software is what needs the most updating out of all this. Have more available games, we have to start selling movies, what's the point of having a Zune with 80GB or more if you can't buy movies for them. I know there is software out there that converts dvds to zune formats, having one myself, but you all have to agree there are plenty of people out there who dont know about that kind of stuff and are just confused and upset because they cant put their movies on their Zune. The new device will help alot too, and those definitely need to be touch screen, and have a web browser. Maybe something they could add that would put us ahead of Apple, is microsoft apps on there or something. Like Microsoft word availability or something. That would be really cool. You could send your projects to your email from your Zune and then print it off when you get home or to school or something like that. I think the radio on Zune is definitely a plus, and the fact that it tells you what station you're on and what song is playing and being able to add the song to your cart for download is a big advantage for Zune over the iTouches. I just think the Zune team really has to knock it out of the park on this next one, or I dont see us ever pulling ahead in popularity over Apple.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dillon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 31st 2009 12:45PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
