Wrong, hence why all Zunes crashed at new years. Fail software from a fail company.

All Zunes didnt crash, only the very first model of Zune... And it was because there was a framework issue. the Zune 2.0's are good to go. they run on .Net which is solid as a rock.

And Sync basically is a computer running a mobil version of Windows with Bluetooth capabilities.

Very cool stuff...

[Hesh]

It wasnt even the early zunes that crashed. Only the 30gb zunes were the ones with the problems. No other zune had any problems. Now Back on topic...

The zune market place offers unlimited downloads for like 15 bucks a month with good quality music but ipod on the other hand you have to buy every friggin song on the ipod market place or you could download from limewire but most songs from limewire are crappy quality.

I also have to say after purchasing 4 iPods..... NEVER AGAIN!!! EVER!!!!

Also, isnt the USB slot to plug in your flash drives with mp3 muzac on it? Better be!!!! I will be sooooooo dissapointed if not.
I dont want to use CDs in the car, so cumbersome, when I can put 4,000 songs on a 16GB USB drive. That should do for a long drive dont ya think?

PS: Dont tell me when you plug in an Ipod in the USB slot of the car its gonna say "Install iTunes before proceeding" LOL!!

No it should just say something like connected to Camaro or Chevrolet or something. It would be sweet if a pic of a camaro comes up.



And why all the hate on iPods i have a first gen nano and still use the thing every day in my car love it and iTunes is so much better then WMP I installed windows 7 on my comp. and had to put all the songs back on iTunes and wmp it took iTunes prob about 30 min to add all the songs so then i put them on wmp I started around 1am and just let it go went to it the next day at 1pm and was still loading the songs that bs

This is turning into a iPod vs. Zune thread. But I will say this. Jesus uses an iPod.

I got the C&C package just for the USB option.

The USB port in the Camaro should read MP3's on portable USB drives. Which, imo, is the best way to go in the car. If you happen to leave it in the car in scorching heat or freezing cold it's less likely to be damaged than an MP3 Player (be it a Zune or iPod).

That said, the ONLY iPod I would own (and I got one for Christmas) is the Touch. The interface to control the Touch is so much more intuitive than that horrible wheel on regular iPods. I despise regular iPods.

I won't use iTunes to purchase music though. When I purchase a song I should be able to use it on anything I want, not just the iPod. So I download from Amazon.com and I get the MP3 file that can go in anything, and it automatically get's picked up by iTunes to go in my Touch.

this lets you just tap into the sound system, using the player's controls.


if you have the C&C package or a 2LT or 2SS, you can use the normal iPod cable (or equivalent USB cable for your device) to use the car's controls with the device.

I think he meant MINI plug..yes 1/8th inch...MP3 playback jack..just plug er in and go.

This is best if you have a small library but if you have more then 4 gigs of music you'll need to use an mp3 player. In my experience any portable usb drive larger then 4 gigs don't last very long and external hard drives are not designed to be used everyday and will typically break after a year if used this way.
