Apple iPod vs. Revamped Microsoft Zune: iPod still industry beater

The newly revamped Microsoft Zune is meant to go head to head with the Apple iPod as it now has wireless capabilities and is much sleeker, but I am afraid that this is not enough to knock the iPod off its thrown. The zune also has another hurdle that it has to try and compete with, and that is Apple have upgraded their iPod to give us even more features.

This is only the second generation Zune from Microsoft, but more innovation is needed before Apple has to worry about things. Microsoft’s new lineup of Zune music players consists of an 80Gbyte Zune; this has a 3.2-inch screen and will cost $250. There are cheaper flash versions like the $200 8GB or the $150 4GB player.

If you had to choose from the two, what do you prefer?
