Not really. The songs are only good for 3 plays. Plus wi-fi drains the battery, also the battery life of the zune is the worst i've ever dealt with, and the software is garbage too, it use to automatically change album covers on me, like Red & Meths 'Blackout' album I put it on there n added the cover, the next day I got on it changed it to the Britney Spears 'Blackout' album cover. Theres more flaws with the software too. Also searching through music sucks on the Zune, the click wheel is alot easier. I use to be really big on Zune too but since I got the iPod I realize how much better it is.

ipod, I have both and the ipod is way easier to make playlist and transfer songs. zune you have to add everything and then sync it and sometimes not everything syncs and you don't find out till later when your trying to find a particular song.

i fucks with the sansdisk sansa e260 4GB mp3 player...its awesome and i dont have to deal with bullshit itunes software...and for a FRACTION of the price of the 4GB ipod.  and its got a SD memory slot too, so i can add music/video/photos without having to upload them directly to the player.

now all i need is for sandisk/sansa to come out with a player with 100+ GB of memory and ill be straight.

i have all 3, the zune, ipod, the sansa u mentioned and another sansa. memory slot is limited to like another 2gigs tho. Sansa was simple, I hated using WMP to sync my music tho

??  i click and drag my music into the sansa..at first it was a little of a hassle, but i created a shortcut for the player on my desktop and now i just open winamp, select the files i want to upload, drag into the shortcut folder and in a few seconds im good to go.

I have owned both players before and the Zune is the better player.
Both players have shitty software but the Zune's is better.  I've never had to deal with the issues the others describe, like changing cover art or missing songs. 
I have never used the wi-fi feature so I cannot comment of that.

i know iPod is easy-to-use and has good navigation, but I never tried a Zune so I can't really say which is better yet.

Yeah I had to return my Zune a few weeks ago after like a month of use. It wouldn't charge anymore.

i don't like the way all these mp3 players have all these extras bolted on. i could care less about watching videos, viewing pics or a touch screen. i would want a player with:

1) good sound quality
2) compact
3) drag and drop compatibility on windows (syncing software is nearly always bs)
4) strong battery life
5) decent bundled earphones to match the player (the iphone earphones are TERRIBLE)

i would say that all these players on the market always fall down given those criteria in favour of a bunch of features that i personally wouldn't want. a music player plain and simple is fine.

the sansa is real good btw there's a trick with it (depends on the model) where if you hold down a button and flick the lock switch a certain way while plugging it into the usb port it will be drag and drop and you won't have to use WMP to transfer music...
