Zune Boards - View Single Post - Why did you choose the Zune over the iPod?

Started with a 20 gig iPod. Thought it was, well, alright. I picked up the so-called "Apple Care Protection Plan" for 40$ after going through 3 iPods in 60 days. My 4th lasted around 9 months and then it started to get really hot during charging. Woke up after one night and found the screen broken and filled with the souls of millions of black pixels. Apple said that that wasn't covered by the fantastic protection plan, but that they could refer me to a 3rd party repair company that would likely do it for round 200 duckets... no thanks.

Picked up the Sansa e270, loved it. It never crashed, broke, or screwed up at all.

I just got my tax return (broke college student ftw) so I wanted something bigger and better. I found the Zune last week and impulse bought the hell out of it. Love it so far.
