... have long had alternatives, and better ones at that. I doubt many would be itching to spurn one DRM-infested monopolistic hellhole just to leap into another.
I've had a 60GB Zen for a couple of years now. Does the job of playing music perfectly. But then again how hard is it : a small hdd and a bit o' software wrapped up in some plastic.
Job done, no pun intended.
Can't ever imagine ever buying anything from MS or Apple.
The iPod itself seems reasonable enough, aprt from the aura of smug that goes along with it but iTunes should be enough to put anyone and everyone off.
Is Zune finally coming to Europe?

"Many European iPod haters have prayed for the Zune’s arrival."
So, that's eight people, then (well, the religious ones who pray, at least).
And well done to Andy Hards ... admitting you have a Zune is the first step.
Paris, because she looks as though she's trying to contact 'The Social'!

Show me a European iPod hater who has prayed for Zune's arrival and I will show you a blinkered fool.
Even Paris knows there are other players out there.
