the creative zen is better than ipod i think this one is a bit cheap and the ipod aainst this 1 would own it because of the more things you can do with the ipod
im not sticking up for ipod i dont really like it tbh i like the creative zen type because of its wide screan and its exeleent sound
8/10 this is crap, i bought it and it freezes so easily, it can break easily and if u go to fast in moving picking the songs it will freeze, BULL CRAP
Freezing is usually the fault of the owner, not the player. I got a couple mp3's that ended up expiring. They would cause the player to freeze when I tried to play them. All fixed when I removed the songs in question. Otherwise I've had the player problem-free for years.
If it does freeze, the reset button is easily accessible and fixes it right up anyway.
Well, at least Apple has a good rep for honoring their warranty. In this regard Creative has an abysmal track record. The internet is full of complaints--my Zen V died after 2 months. Thwy would not issue an RMA# unless I first paid them $25., which I redused to do. They also wanted $12.99 just to e-mail me a link for a Vista soundcard driver--I will never buy from this CHEAP company again.
of course the zen v is better than the ipod nnano.ipod even stole the look of zen v and used it to make their new ipod nano (generation 3).it's good that the zen v creators sued them.
i just unfortunatly broke my zen vision a couple days ago and cant afford another one. so im going to buy the new 16 gb zen v plus tommorow in white. i cant wait!
i have it trust me mines 2gb i had to replace it alomost 3 times it fat ulgy i loved mine until the first 4 months and i still think the nano is better then it even thou the nano is not that great I say go with ipod touch or somthing from sansung
i bought thiis and had it for about 4 mounths and now i hate it so the other day wile looking for a ipod classic i ran into the creative zen(just zen no v, m or anything) i tryed it out and right away i new it was the best thin creative has ever cane out with check it out if your wanting a good mp3 and video player im loven mine
My zen never gives up on me... I use it at work there's a lot of dust and stuff there but still no dust inside my ZEN that's good already. The sound quality is superb when you use good plugs. The interface is easy and fast. No crappy itunes needed. Best mp3 I had!!! better than my previous nano and mini. And a lot cheaper ;)
I think that ipods are over-priced and over-rated. Why sell out to a big company like Apple when you can support the smaller guys like Creative? I am getting my Zen V Plus soon and I cannot wait!! ZEN V PLUS FOREVER!!!! :)
WHAT ??????? Zens are better ???? You guys are all wrong !!!! I had a creative zen v plus and changed it with an iPod nano 4gb, well let me tell you how much BETTER is the iPod !!!
You've got no idea what you're talking about. This has more features, and is cheaper. Not to mention that you don't have to be a slave of iTunes.This beats the iPod Nano in all of the important factors.
ipods sucks, i love creative mp3 and mp4 players they are so cool, and they dont break so easily,i have a lot of creative mp3 players, a friend has a zen vision, and it has fall a million times and nothing happened, they are like a stone man.
I have both an iPod and a Zen and i got to say that the zen is better.. it has way more features than the iPod. Most people buy iPods because they're popular, but i got to say that theu're not all that.. In my opinion the Zen beats the iPod nano 100%..
An ipod is boring, the background of a ipod is plain white. This, cant you change what the background looks like? Everyones getting ipods for christmas, its just crazy. The zen v is only $90! 8 more days and its mine!
People only buy iPods to be cool. and don't say i'm jealous because I can't afford an iPod. They are the same price most places. I just don't want one because they're crap.
with the nano u buy a brand and no video's. Creative is better quailty and was around before ipod, nano buyers are just people who want an image not a player.
haah lol yes u can drop it wif out breaking... and how does u bein in topset make u not a tramp?lol u get £30 in jobs? wow go u. Your mum must be so proud of u first u play the keyboard for her then u ear money awwww whos a cleva boy.prik
haha!! n ya mum must be so proud of u being such a mega bitch and all!! haha maybe u should join the circus n make all the losers proud... esp ya mum!!
wtf i dont hav a digital watch they r shit i hav an analog 1!!
the zen is better, and the ipod nano... does it have a standard usb socket? can you transfer songs off it? can you play WMA tracks? can u drop it without it breaking? with the ipod, you dont have either of these.
and for your fukin info im gettin a zen vision M for xmas and i get £30 a month in jobs and stuff and im in topset to english maths and science so dont call me a tramp loser!
nano's r really thin and breakable peices of shit... go and google "ipod sucks" and see what you get.
wtf i dont hav a digital watch they r shit i hav an analog 1!!
the zen is better, and the ipod nano... does it have a standard usb socket? can you transfer songs off it? can you play WMA tracks? can u drop it without it breaking? no!!

I have the 4GB Zen V Plus and i must say that i have been very satisfied with it so far. It has excellent build quality, exceedig what i had expected. It has performed woderfully and i have not had any of the problems reported by others. It really is a tough little cookie. Doesn't even stop playing when dropped!
i neven see something like "iPod X, better than Creative Zen", just save something like "that's because creative rocks bla bla bla", just marketing, I won't buy a player that its ads are "better that X product", if I buy something is because I like it and because it is good by itself.
Like Zune, "Microsoft's iPod", I don't think this is a good marketing, it just shows the iPod is the king and the other trying to be closer.
what it really is... that the compnays are showing (mostly usa) that you can own somthing just as good as the ipod and dont have to fall for the yuppy shit that people buy just cuz they think its the in thing to do
I LOVE THE IPOD VIDEO!! dont get me wrong its just that you dont have to buy ipod to have a good player
Do you have any reasoning behind why iPod is rated higher? How about the fact that iPod is the most marketed mp3 player? That might have something to do with it, though they annoy us commercials do work.
thatz interestijng. i have been hearing lotsa things that steve jobs says about his products being so much better than competitors in his addresses... maybe u need to go out more??
Lol Creative zen mx is better than the nano 2 nano suk

They did the same dumb ass thing Apple did! You can't change out the battery when it goes dead. Away from home with a drained battery? Too bad.
You can't even change it out when it will no longer hold a charge..unless you literally PRY THE CASE APART.
