Zune 8 GB Digital Media Player Black (2nd Generation)

The Zune 8GB media player is an excellent MP3, picture and video player. The menus are very easy to use (once you figure it out on your own) and the storage space is ample.

My only frustration after purchasing the Zune and beginning to try to use it is that the very vague, short and overly simplified instruction manuals are basically worthless. I had to guess about pushing the center of the control pad to select something in a menu. It took me several minutes to figure this out on my own and no where in the instructions does it instruct you to do this. I think they need to include much more detailed instructions so that new users don't have to go on line and search for instructions on something so basic and simple. It really wouldn't be hard for them include a slightly more detailed instruction manual.

This is a great product. I'm very impressed with all of the Zune MP3 players. I already have a 80GB & a 30GB. We love them all. I would suggest a Zune over an Ipod anyday.

I really enjoyed this product I recommened it to any music lover. Great sound and clear videos.

I would purchase another one for my friends.

...and got a Zune. I'd wanted to get an iPod for a couple of years, but was gun-shy with the price. The Zune was about $40 cheaper and I knew could hook it up to my Xbox 360, so I went ahead and picked an 8 GB version up. I have not regretted my decision. The controls are easy to use, the software is easy to use, the screen is small but the images are crisp. I am really enjoying it! I've had it about 3 weeks and have had no issues so far. I ordered a silicone case and armband off of amazon, which has also been a good addition (since it doesn't come with a case).

Perfect for my 10year old.....she easily got on line and began downloading tunes and the best thing is now her friends give her Zune Tune Cards for birthday gifts instead of items that she won't use.
