Ipod is WAYY overrated. Its just a brand name... Zen is cheaper and better.

I agree. Zens cheaper+holds more songs. Ipod also scratches easier without the case.Ipod is WAYY overrated. Its just a brand name... Zen is cheaper and better.

Brand names mean everything. Most of you buy Pepsi or Coca-cola not some store brand soda.
When it comes down to it. Chicks dig the ipod more than the zen. They aren't interested in if it has 10 more gig of space. They want to hear you spent XXX number of dollars.
Jay kay. They are both good but seriously no one needs more than 4 gigs of space on an mp3 player. Four gigs of space will give you 1,000 songs. Let's just say for the sake of argument all of these songs are 3 minutes. That is 3,000 minutes or 50 hours. Do you understand how long that is? That is also listening to it all the way through. Who sits there and listens to an mp3 player for 50 hours also don't you guys listen to the songs you like more than once?

What I dont get is like when people get 20gigs, and dont even have HALF as much songs as the iPod can hold. The Zen is fine for me. If you have more than 2000 songs, go with iPod.

Well if it counts for anything I wouldn't trade my iPod mini in for anything else. Pricey, yes, but the format of it is great, it's easy to create playlists on it, and when you're bored...SOLITAIRE!

Hello, storebrand cola taste like crap, that's why it's so cheap (at least around here). I say if you have the money go for the ipod (just get the smaller one, the bigger one is just too heavy to carry around). Then you will never need a diffrent sound system again.

Hey, I just got a Zen Micro for christmas 
. I have to say it has I'mpressed me very much in the short ti'me I have owned it. I put my entire music library on it in only 5 minutes, and it could have been less, I went and played PS2 while it was uploading. Cool colors, cheaper price, smaller, more compact and lightup! I would recomend it to anyone.

lol net, I need to as well, but I still went out and bought 6 more CDs to put on it. *sigh* really gotta stop doing that.
But on the Zen, I would buy a new pair of head phones. The buds they give you are nice, but not as much bass as I like. But if you are into classical, don't worry, they are fine.

I think the iPod can only take ipod tunes thingy, mac tunes whatever. Where the zen can take wma as well. No need to convert songs 
, and Zen is the name of my internet too so

Actually, I like the clickwheel. The Zen's scroll thingy took a while to get used to, compared to the clickwheel which I figured out the first ti'me I held it. But I wouldn't turn down an iPod, I would just sell it on Ebay. *sigh* I love Ebay.
