Zune HD and standard definition videos?
I'm considering upgrading from my Zune 30 to a Zune HD 32 but none of my videos are HD and that is not likely to change. Would I be wasting my money getting HD? How will my SD videos look on an HD player? I want the wifi that is available on the Zune HD.
I'm also thinking of getting an iPod Touch 32 gig for the wifi if the SD videos will look bad on the HD.
Please no Zune or iPod haters just honest opinions based on your own experience.
Alex did you read the question? I'm considering the Zune HD which is high definition or the iTouch which is not HD. I never said it was HD. If you don't know the answer then please don't answer the question.
Since Alex doesn't seem to know about the Zune HD here is a link to the one I'm thinking of getting.

AND this is the iPod I'm thinking of getting:

I'm well aware that it isn't HD. I never said it was. I said I was considering it since my videos are all SD.

well the zune wont upconvert the videos, as you know. i ahve an ipod touch 2nd gen very similar to the 3rd, but i recomend the zune. i had a zune 30 white as my first music player and i was so happy and satisifed. also the zune hd as you know has longer battery life, due to the OLED screen and the Tegra chipset blows the ipod away.
i really like thew zune HD, but im actully getting a PSP Go!
but thats something else. anyways i would suggest zune hd, a tad cheaper, clearer screen, HD output, and less people have it like trhe ipod.
email me if you need more detailed help and such =]
so eitherway wether you have sd or hd i think the zune is better. also if you ever do get any hd videos like youtube you can actuuly download HD videos using Real Player.
its nice on a bigger tv.
so either one would be good, but still the zune is newer hardware, plus crisper screen, and since the screen is a tiny bit smaller it would still look better for SD cause its more compressed, where as the ipod stretches SD videos.
good luck.

Zune HD is extra consumer pleasant, "beautiful" from what all my feminine cousins, peers and sister say, and has an OLED monitor, that's quite well for films some thing Itouch does no longer have, and Nvedia tegra, which offers zune HD a contact monitor that could make Apple cry. It has the first-class consumer interface, and HD radio, some thing apple can simplest do via making use of the web or promoting FM transmitters, due to the fact that to get radio Itouch demands a transmitter. Apple is fine however it simplest has apps and movies. So Sound pleasant, monitor pleasant and contact pleasant is larger than Itouch. For apps you would get third social gathering apps. theyre reliable, except you do not comply with guideline. Theres apps like Visual boy Zune, a sport boy colour emulator at the ZuneHD ( individuals are nonetheless running on a gba emulator) as good as a texting app, that's in system. For ZuNEhd2 its in a piece of system. Plus Zune is on a F*cking aircraft, Apple Can't do this! ( Zune Marketplace on United Airlines)

neither the iPod touch nor the Zune are HD
the iPod touch can only sync and play SD videos
the Zune HD only does output HD. so you have to buy a separate dock for like $50 and connect the Zune to your TV to get HD output
so they're both SD, the iPod touch has a better web browser and better apps. just go with the iPod touch
Source(s): come on, HD on a 3 inch screen? are you kidding me?
