This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
this really is going on my twitter…
Certainly one of the challenges which people starting a new on-line firm face is that of obtaining guests to their internet site.
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog jump out. Please let me know where you got your design. With thanks
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
Dallas was my favorite series of all times. I can’t wait til the new series starts. It sounds like you will have a great cast. Bobby and J.R. were great.
Can’t wait for this, damn she is hot, sounds like they really care about this remake. I hope it lives up to it’s hype, and they are including the original cast, only reason why I will be watching. I really hope they include the kick ass theme music. I hope they can get everyone.

EXCELLENT CASTING!! Glad they didn’t go with a “no-name” for this pivotal role. Hope they get the same type of talent for both of the Ewing Boys! Very excited to have Jordana on Dallas!
The casting continues! Any idea on when the pilot will air? So far, it has only been a lot of talk.
Saw this news yesterday and love it. Jordana is a talented actress and extremely beautiful.
I love the fact thats shes not a kid either, i had a fear this would be cast poorly just like nearly every other new US show and their catalogue model casts.
Well its clear shes basically ‘Pam’ – the wrong girl for a Ewing heir.
The first new casting is a good one – heres hoping they get the others as right as this.
Elena should be casted in a Sue Ellen type role who later marries John Ross. With her love interest for Christopher she later feels that she married the wrong Ewing just as Sue Ellen felt for Bobby.
