Great Wasabi Man said:Anywho...How much is the Touch? If it's affodable I'll just get that instead of replaing the Hd in my Zen Xtra. I really liked the Zen Xtra.

xsarien said:To the everyday consumer, they want what's advertised the most. Apple's iPod marketing budget is about 50% of why the thing is selling so well.
People are like that.
Mason said:I think we're already at that point.
20 GB Ipod = $400
30 GB Zen = $220
Hmm....the choice was easy for me.

gofreak said:Most people, I would say, still can't afford an iPod.
MrPing1000 said:Hmm I'm seriously thinking about getting an ipod atm but I'm starting to have doubts after hearing a few non flattering things. I wonder when the Zen Touch will be released in the UK and will it be any good
TAJ said:>>>If Apple's sales figures are any indication, I'd say that most people can afford one. But whether or not Apple "adjusts" to incorporate more features is, as you say, something only time will tell. But how much stuff can they really put into it outside of more codecs and more space? When you think about how practical it is, video is a rather dumbass thing to incorporate.<<<
I might look past iPod's higher price and shorter battery life if Apple added digital/analog line in/line outs and good DACs. I DO NOT want video playback added to my HDD music player, though.
