Hi Folks,

I am fed up with the constant pausing issue when listening to music on my 160gb iPod, which I am not the only person experiencing:

So I am looking at an alternative large capacity portable MP3 player and was considering the Zune 120gb.

Does anyone have one and does it work OK with MC?

Rhino,
Zune is a world of its own. Only Microsoft's Zune software works with it.

Any newer device from most major manufacturers will work: Arcos, Creative, iRiver, Sandisk, Samsung. Even Sony now. Microsoft used to enforce PlaysforSure branding for these. They changed it to something like Vista Compatible. The thing that these types of devices have in common is the ability to work with Microsoft based subscription services like the one we just started.

Cheers,

Jim

Thanks for the info Jim ... guess I'll just need to look at what else is out there now.
