The Zune is going to be available in Canada in a couple of weeks, and I'm in the market for a new portable mp3 player.
I listen with Sennheiser CX300 earphones, and none of my music is in lossless form. Video playback is a very nice thing that I will use from time to time, but is hardly going to be the primary use of the device. It really sucks that neither of these players can play DivX without transcoding first.
My budget is ~250$, so both the iPod Classic 80gb and the Zune 80gb are the right price.
Are there any other options that are available in Canada? Creative doesn't seem to have a comparable player at this price, and it's hard to find iRiver/Cowon at decent prices in Toronto.
Should I get the Zune or an iPod and why?
Also no one in Canada has the zune right now so if you have one please tell me what you think.
