Ipod Touch -vs- Zune HD

MP3 players started out as simple audio players for digital music and sound files. Today they are much more advanced with options beyond just music, like videos, pictures, internet access, and much more. There are many different companies that make MP3 players including advanced ones. The most popular are iPod which is made by Apple and Zune which is made by Microsoft.

Once the touch-screen technology came out I had to upgrade my MP3 options. Sure iPod was well known but I had to do a little research. I read a great article in PC Magazine that showed these two players side by side. Initially I was drawn to the Zune for the price but after reviewing the comparison the iPod Touch the best choice for me hands down. HD radio is not that appealing to me but 75,000 applications versus 9 is what made me choose the iPod Touch over the Zune HD.
