How are they screwing you over?  Because they had someone come up with an idea after you bought a Zune, do you know how dumb that sounds?

I higly reccomend it. Hard to scratch (I have had it since the end of 06 and it still has no scratchs despite being in my pocket with keys/cell phone all the time). Screen is great for viewing movies and pictures. You can change the background, listen to the radio and send music/pictures to friends. Once MS gets unprotected songs on the Zune Maretkplace the file sending might become more useful. Most people are not a big fan of the 3 days/3 plays rule. Plus it comes in pink :P If you have any questions just ask.

Dude, seriously don't bother. The marketplace is just the same as iTunes, expensive with DRM and you can get your music without DRM elsewhere for much cheaper.

The Zune IMO is the best player on the market right now. What creative do you suggest/like and why?

It has a lot of stuff, not as much as iTunes but that is to be expected since it has been around for less time. The price's range from $5-$12 a cd (just like in a store). Same as most online downloads, 99 cents per song if you dont buy the whole cd. The downloads are very fast and the songs have perfect sound quality. Plus it use's MS points for the downloads, and it ties in your XBL account. Any points you have on there can be used to download music.

Yeah Ive had my Zune since Christmas I really like ut. Great for vids and pics. Plus it has a radio and wireless. The marketplace however kinda sucks. They dont even have video yet. Just get your media elswhere.

You do know that there is more than one Creative mp3 player? And I only said Creative because it was just what came into my head. I just suggest going with something that everyone else hasn't gone with
