My wife wants a new one from the $25 version I bought her to try out. Don't want to pay the ipod premium price or deal with itunes; how are these things?

I'm in for one... I just need a place to store all of my music, I'm not big on watching movies on tiny screens, so 30GB is enough for me.

Thank you OP :)

These are pretty sweet. I think they are decent for watching movies. At high quality a ~2 hour movie takes less than a GB, so 30GB is plenty for me.

Kills the deal








:D, joking... great deal! If only someone would build an male iPod connector to male USB adapter with a signal translator device and modded firmware for the zune so that I could control a zune from my Pioneer AVIC D3's touchscreen. That feature only supports iPods for now:(

This is a great deal, the biggest bumber is that it doesnt take xvid and you have to convert everything to wmv
Is this a pain in the ass or is it not really a hassle? If its a pain then I'll just get a Zen.

The plus side: It's a Zune for $150!

The down side: It's a ZUNE for $150.

I wish that Woot would have some refurb iPod's once in awhile!

I've had one for about almost a year an I love mine. I've never owned an iPod, but I almost bought a Zen Vision M. My girlfriend ended up getting the Zen, and it's nice but I think the Zune is much more stable. The Zen has a ton of "hicups" or freezes that get annoying for me.

The biggest downside to the Zune is the software isn't so great, but you only have to use it on occasion.

Not me... iPods should come with a sign on them that says "don't break me".

I don't know a single person who hasn't needed their iPods fixed at least once.

my gf has her ipod mini for 3 years without a single problem. It's a refurbished one too and she beats the hell out of it. My aunt had her nano for 4 months and it has been problem free.

Weird, you watch movies while lifting weights or just doing cardio?
