The Zune has been competetive!
Gentlemen, it is time for me to get a bothersome issue off my chest. As you know I have an Amazon bestseller list fetish, and the results of late bother me. There is no question that the iPod is definitely number 1 - the new silver 4 Gb iPod nano is number 1 for MP3 players. The new 16 Gb ipod Touch is number 2. The 8Gb Sandisk is number 3, however, then come two versions of the iPod classic. Disappointingly, the white Zune comes in at number 6, and it has been around that spot for a while. I simply don't understand how people could opt for a player that is so darn large compared to the iPod. Now it is true that the Zune sells for $160 for 30 Gb, which is less than the iPods ahead of it. It almost seems that other companies are flooding the market with players, hoping to dupe the customer.
Tell me - is my thinking warped? Am I too much of an Apple fanatic? I could use your input.

There may be a lot factors in play here. There are many more models of the ipod than the zune the numbers are more distributed. Apple has increased the places to buy an ipod. And the prices on the zune seem too low to sustain.
