Zune Thoughts: Zune Isn't That Thick

All across the big wide interweb, people are moaning about how thick and big the Zune is. "Like, omg, my iPod/Sansa/Zen is 100x thinner than that brick!" And yes, that's true. However, anyone who has ever owned an iPod with video or similiar device knows that as soon as you buy your device, you better have a case for it because it will get scratched very quickly. It has even been reported that staring at the iPod hard enough will scratch it. By the time you've added on you're monstrous Agent 18 VideoShield, your ultra-thin iPod isn't so thin after all.

I personally have an iPod nano (soon to be a Zune), and I received three defective units before I got my fourth, and by then I learned my lesson and bought a top-notch case that was around 1/4 the price of the iPod itself. Now, when I put my iPod into the case it wasn't so thin anymore, but I don't really care about that kind of stuff.

Just some food for thought.
