You won't get too many negative responses because this is a ZUNE forum.

That's because zS is a bunch of FAILURES.

I hate my zune. I wish I had never even waste my time getting it! I hate how it plays videos, can share content wirelessly, and plays audio/video podcasts. And don't even get me started with the radio!!! Jeez, what were they thinking putting that on.... And I mean, zune games... WA!? That's the dumbest idea ever, and they make it even worse by allowing users to create games for free!! Seriously, wth were they thinking? So yeah, I truly do regret getting a zune.

Also loathe the fact that it looks so much better than the iPoop and is more durable. Oh, despise the fact that it was less expensive that the rotten Apple as well. (Spent the extra $$ on my daughter.) Hate how many positive comments I get on it.

I hate how you can change the backgrounds. it is also very stupid that ms didn't go with a bland awkward spreadsheet ui like itunes. and don't get me started on that stupid zunepass, I mean who would want thousands of songs for $15 a month.

helluvagood · 09-01-2008, 07:28 PM

I completely agree. I mean seriously, I LOATH it when someone comes up and compliments my zune, stating how they plan to buy one soon! It's SO annoying. Also, I have to agree about the whole custom background thing. It sucks being able to choose the background, and on top of that! I now have 200 extra pictures on my device that I chose for backgrounds! Seriously, look at all that wasted memory. The second worste thing for me though is the zune pad , it sucks not being able to spin my finger in circles, instead i have to do something that makes sense... going side to side and up and down. What adds to the fail though is that I can also click the directions, which I think was a simply horrible idea. And to sum everything up, the single greatest reason I hate my zune is because THE BACK DOESN't SMUDGE!! It drives me crazy not being able to see finger prints all over it!!!!!!!!!!!!

stkr · 09-01-2008, 08:12 PM

Nope. The only thing about it that drove me crazy was the software and now it at least has the bare necessities.

bembol · 09-01-2008, 09:15 PM

Somewhat only because my Library is for iPod. Some are can't be played because it's Purchased or have Multiple Audio (with Commentary, etc.). I have to time/can't bother to re-encoding them.

I'm exchanging my recent 80GB purchase for the 4GB tomorrow. FM Radio is one of the reasons why and also I made some purchases on Zune, mostly Music Videos.

Netrix · 09-01-2008, 09:37 PM

I love my Zune! I would be depressed if it was taken from me.

teege! · 09-02-2008, 02:09 PM

if i were to be separated from my zune forever, i would cower in a corner until i had the money to get a new one or someone felt sorry for me and gave me theirs :P

eppey1 · 09-02-2008, 06:39 PM

i love my zune, but right now its a brick b/c i lost the charge/sync cable

creative zune · 09-03-2008, 05:33 PM

i hate my zune for making my life easier .....i hate coming home frm skool and simply clicking *sync now** and it syncs my new songs frm my pc ....darn u MICROSOFT

I fell in love with the Zune8 but got really disappointed in the Zune80's screen. Its big, but 240x320 doesnt look that good at that size, pixelation is an issue for me. I'm also guessing the screen colours aren't into the millions either. I noticed with the preloaded content, there was an avril lavigne video which was just a comic strip. It was very difficult to read the writing on that video and really not a smart choice to preload with the zune to show its capabilities, It just emphasised one of its faults. With that being said.. I bought 2 of the 80's, red n black. The black looks smart, but I could just lick the red one all day!
Also I wish the touch pad going left to right was just as sensitive as up and down (volume). I would find scrolling through videos much easier. I don't like how a swipe and a button push do the same function while listening to songs (like i said, i'd like scroll thr
