Well the battery life on my Zune 8 is lower than the higher models. The higher the model, the longer the battery. I think the Zune 80 and 120 have at least as high as 48 hours of battery life listening to music. Also, the Zune HD uses an OLED display which I've read uses less power.

I laughed at that one, so true, which is why I bought a rubber case for mine!
Feeding off of Hayo's sarcasm, I'd have to agree with the whole case thing. I never really quite understood the whole point of buying something nice only to make it look ugly so that you can keep it looking nice. That's like people who buy an incredibly soft couch and protect it with plastic covering. You mid-as-well go out and buy a dinky little generic MP3 player if you intended for it to only do the task of playing music. Buying something like a Zune is more than just the power, it's the look. I love how my Zune looks and the Zune HD is drop dead beautiful. iPod Touch looks like it's severely missing something. It's too plain.
I have my ipod touch in a belkin case, just to protect it. My brother had an ipod when they first came out and it got scratched all over. The metal on them tends to get the finest of scratches on it.
But yeah, they're okay but not wonderful. To be honest I've used my little 2GB Creative Zen V more than I've ever used my ipod for music.
Other than using it for music, the itouch feels like a gimmick most of the time, that I can easily live without.
I totally agree with the above and yeah I used to have my mp3players and rubbercaged ipods just to listen to music. I never could get a girlfriend till my friends finally got it tru my thick skull that you have to show off your fancy pods, not hide them or just listen to music on them. Since then I carry my ipods, iphones and zunes on my belt with clips, got rid of my vulgar generic mp3 players and have lots of girlfriends every day now.
Yeah I am always one step behind and they always have the better girlfriends. I have a Garmin gps I could hook to my belt as well? It's from 2003 but still quite shiny and slick

Or a Zune. And honestly I'd prefer the girls that Zune attracts rather than the Apple fanboys/girls. It's not so much the Microsoft fanboys I want to attract, but the Apple fans I want to filter out.
Pssh, Zune, ipod. A real man carries around a gaming laptop and wireless headphones.
