Don't forget the turd brown color
That's a real attractive part of the Zune. I checked them out at best buy, found no reason to buy one. I use Creative players because they have the features that I want, at the right price for me. I'd like to have an iPod, they are darned good too, but mainly for the cool factor.(a large part of my music collection is in the WMA format and the conversion to mp3 isn't possible....or at least not without a lot of effort)

But if either Apple or Creative offered one in turd brown, I might look at an Archos as an alternative.
