Sony iPod killer?

Why does Sony insist on have proprietary software/etc... ? I relize they could make alot if something took off, but it seems like most stuff they apply this to has suffered. I guess the only thing I'm thinking of is the minidisk.

Duh me. Probably why this new one supports regular MP3s.
 
Apple isn't a really terrible company... but Sony is. Between the two, I'd go music-less... but if I had to choose one, it'd be the... *gag* ... iPod :Q

Yeah, if Gurck would choose Apple than Sony must really suck it.
 
I don't care for Apple products too much, but I sure as hell refuse to give another penny to Sony.

What's so terrible about Sony?
 
Sony warrenty in the UK has been 'very good' to me the few times I have had to use it.

Ipod is still the #1 seller.

Iriver is OK, but it is no Ipod killer.

The only reason Ipod does so well is because it is thin. THIN THIN THIN.

you didn't do any research on the Creative Zen Touch and Zen Micro, did you? If I had to buy again, i'd still choose those over ipod and ipod mini, easily.

funny you mention the iaudio m3 first. im about 5 minutes away from buying it. after my research, for the money, size, and support, i like what the iaudio m3 offers over other mp3 players.

I never understood people who say "Between the two choices A and B, I'd choose C". C is not a choice! If you are going to set yourself up by saying "Between the two..." then you have to choose. Of course you choose option C and then revert back and say "but if I had to choose one.." Yes! You have to chose one, hence "Between the two..."
