Ipod or zune? Suggestions please - Blu-ray Forum

If you're using it in the car, you'll have a lot more options with the iPod for in-car integration so that you can control the iPod through the radio. I don't think the Zune has any support for this and still has to be used via FM transmitter or regular stereo output. Pain in the ass, and not as good for sound quality.

The new version of all the iPods were just released a few months ago, so I think you've got awhile before anything new comes out.

Now the fun part. Finding a hard plastic shell that will protect the screen but not compromise screen touch sensitivity. Oh technology, I hate you!

They make film disposable sheets that protect the screen from scratches. Just pull it off and put a new one on when it gets too funky to clean anymore.
