Highly Ranked

I hate to say it, lest I be deemed a fanboy (I really don't care about the thumbs-down I'm sure it will generate), but the Zune software is MUCH nicer looking. It looks less confusing/busy as well.

i was thinking the same thing. the Zune software is just more fun. usually i like my software fairly utilitarian but when it comes to my music i want style. the artist view thing (or whatever its called) is one of the coolest ideas i've seen. im looking forward to September 15 and the 4.0 upgrade.

I agree, though I'll give them credit - Apple did finally give back some view customization options. Not only can you get rid of Genres again, you can move the columns from left back to top, show & hide any of them, there's a new album art column. With a little tweaking you can get it looking pretty Zune-like.

I'll probably go back to Zune tomorrow, but with a bonus kick in speed this is the first time in months I've been able to stand using iTunes for more than syncing so that says a lot.

Oh and I didn't think about the 4.0 Zune update, how exciting!!
