Zune HD user reviews (16GB, black)

Pros User Interface, musical experience, music quality, zune pass, zune software.

Cons Doesn't have an external speaker, short supply of apps (although there are more coming out, and an ever-growing list of third party apps).

Pros Nice player UI is easy to navigate and you always have a buton to get to the menu. Zune pass is sweet. Loading movies is not easy and I do not know why but ws able to load after 5 attempts.

Cons Does not work with Windows Play for Sure digital copies and I do not know why. If movies are coming with digital copies, why not allow the player to support thqt verision? Msoft missed the boat.

Summary Good, still behindthe curve with no apps and not supporting didigtal copies that are supplied with purchased DVDs.

Pros Excellent sound quality and incredible screen clarity. The Zune is intuitive for MP3 users. Love the ability to phase in-and-out of the historical screen. Zune music library is totally awsome!! Price of 16 gig Zune is close to the 8 gig IPod.

Cons More apps would really make this a great piece of equipment. Not sure what will happen to the downloaded music if I ever cancel my Zune subsription. You can only use the Zune with the Zune software. Movies are a pricey at the Zune store.

Summary Love the Zune. If anyone has anything to say negative about the unit, they are probalby die hard IPod fans and are not use to MP3s. With more apps and if more people would give the zune a chance, it could give the IPod a run for the money. Money well spent!!

Pros Video quality on OLED screen is exceptional, Pretty good user interface, form factor of device is pretty sleek.

Cons Not enough accessories, needs more apps

Summary Overall the Zune HD will bring Microsoft back...I thought that it would not meet my expectations over the iPod touch, I was wrong. This device has a great subscription service offering the zune pass which gives you unlimited music downloads. Great buy if you don't mind the lack of apps and games
