New Zunes! New iPods! Sad Faces!

YES SUPER GLOSS!!!!!

So new Zunes lastnight, new iPods today, end of the world tommorrow. I'm going to talk about the new Zunes first. The new Zunes are exactly the same except some size bumps, some (un needed) gloss and the back of the 120GB is now black. The flash Zune comes in Black, Red, and Blue. So far the blue one is only believed to be 16GB and the Zune 80 is now 120GB same $250 price point but enough with the boring stuff. The real magic is the new firmware! This new update goes out to every single Zune owner for free (Apple lol)! It brings the store to the Zune so you can buy, stream, and download music right on your Zune and yes Zune Pass works with it too! It also allows you to tag songs on the built in radio and you can download them right on the device or wait till you get home. The Zune also now comes with 2 free games Texas hold em' and Hexic. Now the software you get some new things called channels and personal picks. Channels are like the top 100 or best workout songs and if you have a Zune Pass there free. Personal picks is when the software will pick songs that you may like based on what you listen to. So if you listen to say Toby Kieth they will show you Tim McGraw or something like that. Lets say I will probably get a Zune pass here soon.

No Gloss but it sure looks like a Zune. I do like the mate finish more!

Now for the new iPods. I think there trying to let the Zune catch up. I mean there isn't much to say they have the new Nanos ^, the iPod Classic is the same just 120GB and they dropped the price on the iPod Touch the 32GB one is no longer more expensive than a car and is only $400 now. Oh and there is a new update for owners of the iPhone and iPod Touch but the iPod Touch one will cost you 10 bones yay $10 to fix there problems YAY! Other than that I say Fail for the Apple Event. The biggest thing probably is that iTunes now allows you to purchase HD TV shows ($2.99) along with NBC coming back. I'm sure the Zune will do that soon with the 360 being able to stream HD and all.

Really overall neither of them were very good updates but the Zune wins out with the free updates. Oh and to everyone that says the Zune is Fugly! Have fun with the 3" thick case you need to have your iPod not explode.
