Now I just need an online retailer that still has a 32gb in stock :O
It is the exact reason.
I tried to use my real headphones with 2+ meter cable and comparing to original earbuds Zune managed to pick a lot of extra radio stations, including few HD ones. With earbuds I'm lucky if it picks 3 main stations in my area.
Well I was actually looking for one that didn't charge me tax. I have check all over the place and everyone that will not charge me tax either does not have it, or is not in stock. I live near the boarder of VA where the sales tax is cheaper and the walmart and bestbuy there are out of stock of the 32gb model. The only store locally that has the 32gb in stock is best buy. I guess I will have to eat the $28 in tax. Oh it hurts badlynewegg.com has em![]()

I'm returning mine...getting a 32GB or 64GB iPod Touch. :/ I have a good number of gripes with this thing.
really? like what?
As someone who did the same thing, I understand your decision completely. Let me guess? The browser, apps, volume rocker, getting around the device?I'm returning mine...getting a 32GB or 64GB iPod Touch. :/ I have a good number of gripes with this thing.
Can you still use the HD Radio with non-stock headphones?

I've been lambasted all over the internet for being an Apple fanboy by going w/ the touch over the Zune, so it would be nice to have a little backup.![]()
3. The add to cart/download setup is sort of cumbersome. When I am browsing the marketplace and click the "add" button, it should start downloading it immediately. Instead, one must go into the cart and manually set it to download. Don't see the point of this.
4. The music genre's are inconsistent. For instance, when I download Jay Z's new album, the Blueprint 3, the genre is "Hip-Hop". When I download Eminem, the genre is "Hip Hop", no hyphen. From the Zune, I wish to be able to just click on Hip Hop and listen to all albums of that genre. Now, I get multiple genre's when in reality they should be under one type.
There is more but it is getting late.
W/ the exceptions of Cowon's S9 and Sony's X1060 of course. Personally, I would love to check out the S9. FLAC, 55 hours playtime, and top notch SQ.I do think that it was pretty obvious that the HD is primarily a PMP focused of music. In that regaurd it is simply the best system ever.
I just lost 2 hours tagging my files so the compilation/various artist albums would not take over my iPod. I hate you iTunes + iPod.Apple's draconian grip over it...

Is this on the device or on the computer? On the computer there's a button right next to the album art that says Download and that downloads the whole album. If it's on the device, sorry for misunderstanding.![]()

Have you ever tried to search for a song on the Zune HD before? I have 3000+ songs on it. There is NO search feature (unlike the iPod Series) on the Zune. Plus, I can't auto fill my Zune with songs using capacity.. (Fill randomly with songs, up to say 20GB's)
See top postBelieve me, I loved the Zune for SOOOOO many reasons. In fact, if they fix some of the must have features for me, I will for sure switch back. Though it seems to me I need a more solid platform. More apps...searchable index etc.
This is solved by having decent metadata tags. I had 112GB of MP3s on both an iPod Classic and a Zune 120 and was able to find the song I was looking for in seconds navigating Genre -> Artist -> Album (or directly to song if you don't have many albums by that artist). I've got a 30GB Zune filled with a wide selection of stuff (8560 songs) that I navigate the same way.Have you ever tried to search for a song on the Zune HD before? I have 3000+ songs on it.

Yea but I remember the name of the song -- and not the artist, this becomes a HUGE problem.
I'd have to try it on the iTouch to truly compare; on my iPod Classic it's near-worthless with the click wheel. I personally agree with heatlesssun that the letter keys should be good enough for search, but to each their own.Search is still faster imo, not that I use it much on my iPod touch (I only upgraded to 3.1.1 last week, I had been on 2.x 'till then), but it's nice to have nonetheless.
I put another album on my zune today and now in album view I get those same bulleted letters as I do in the entire list of songs. I liked when album view was just the albums and no letter thumb nails to get in the way. Is there a way to turn that off in just album view?

I like the letters on the list of songs, but on the album view they just make it look messy. It almost doubled the amount I have to scroll in the album view :\.
Wait, that's it? WTH would anyone put songs on a DAP without tags?
FYI, I still use the Rio Karma, and it wouldn't work without tags....but again, I don't understand why anyone wouldn't tag their music.
Anyone know when they're have a black color for the 32gig version? Zune Originals has other colors but they look ugly to me. I just need it in black!!
