Why the Ipod Will always Lead the Race
The Zune Video Player, although not as popular as the iPod, it's absolutely known of. Unfortunately for Microsoft, it seems impossible to overcome the power of Apple's iPods to take the estimate one spot on the market. But estimate two isn't so bad, now is it? Microsoft has put out a ability Mp3 Player, the Zune Video Player. Theres quite a few features on this baby compared to the iPod, which may make for a small more complicated experience.
Lets start with the name which is sort of odd, the "Zune", but it works. It's virtually the same price with regard to almost all sizes. When it first came out, not very many people knew of course what it was, the advertising and media for the Zune Video Player wasn't done well, which absolutely took a part in what the Zune is today, 2nd place. That's a shame because even though the Zune could be a highly marketable product, due to it's uninformational advertisements giving no solid information on the Zune, no one paid attention because nothing stood out.
The colors that the Zune Video Player come in aren't very special. They come in black, brown, and white. This is someone else aspect that may not have appealed to the collective so much, because who wants a brown mp3 player? But once you get inside the real product, you start to see what shines. The Zune can play up to 14 hours of music, and 5 hours of video. Compared to the iPod, the music is close to equal and it doubles the time while watching videos.
The Zune Video Player is very easy to use. Theres no by hand because you don't need one. The ability of the sound is great, someone else awesome feature is that you can get desktop marketplace and software, allowing you to passage the marketplace through your desktop.
A few key features that are best than the iPod are that the Zune Video Player display is 3" compared to the iPod which is 2.5'. This product also holds up longer, it can take a few more drops than the iPod. A of course unique choice is being able to turn your background to whatever photo you want. The last few are that the Zune has Wi-Fi, an Fm Radio, and the Marketplace costs per month compared to the iPod at .99 per song. Although the iTunes marketplace does have 1.5 million more songs than the Zune marketplace has, the fact that you have to pay 0 just to get 100 songs in comparison to .99 for as many songs as you want is huge. That's a lot of money rescue there.
Overall, this Mp3 Player is an perfect product that has many qualities that surpass the iPod. But due to poor marketing, the Zune will never be as popular as the iPod.
