Actually, I just bought a Zune...30g, $95, how wrong could I go? Wait a

I don't disagree, but once people take the iPod pill, they tend to want to
stay there.

Personally, I have a Sansa that cost half as much, has twice the capacity,
is
upgradable to double what it came with, and plays standard mp3 files without

trouble, plus has a radio in it. And, if I upgraded it to Rockbox, it'd play

ogg files as well.

My daughter has the iPod. I'll give it credit for being a slick little piece

of hardware, but IMHO iTunes blows.
