Re: Do you belong to the 58% of ipod owners who are willing to switch to Zune?? it said in ABI Research's press release that "Respondents were provided a photo and description of the Microsoft Zune device before being asked about their likelihood to choose it over a competitive MP3 player.."
i wonder what kind of description was provided..15.4" MacBook Pro 2.0GHz|SD|2GB|80GB | Apple iPhone 4 32 GB | Apple Wireless Keyboard | Apple Wireless Mouse | 20GB 4G iPod with colored screen | 32GB 2G iPod Touch | Nintendo DS Lite | Nintendo Wii | Grado Prestige Series SR125i

Re: Do you belong to the 58% of ipod owners who are willing to switch to Zune?? The article says "somewhat likely" or "extremely likely" to buy a Zune if it comes out. It doesn't mention that those so-called "iPod users" will actually ditch their iPods.
If they do, then they're not really iPod-heads but just those who jumped on the bandwagon because it was cool to have an iPod.
Hey, i'll get one if its free! Besides, I need another paperweight on my desk.

I don't buy that study. And I'm not buying a Zune. I'm even upgrading to an 80GB iPod (from 60GB) in a couple of months.

Re: Doh Maybe they went around in the Microsoft campus and asked all the ipod users there.

apple should just release their big screen ipod and send its competitors back to their drawing boards and put an end to this.
Unibody MacBook Pro 2.4GHz - 2nd Gen 16gig iPod Touch - 32GB iPhone 3GS - Olympus E-PL1 - Lumix LX3AMDG. I am happy. I am receiving all good things now.
