I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

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.

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.

I’ve said that least 643115 times. The problem this like that is they are just too compilcated for the average bird, if you know what I mean

VisionMedia has a smaller reach than Focus when looking at the number of displays. However, one could argue that each of VISN’s display would be worth more to an advertiser since the displays are primarily on mass transit, reaching a broader audience.

I do like VISN as an investment. I have not read their latest quarterly report or seen guidance, but imagine it is similar to FMCN. I’ll take a look and possibly feature in a post here in the future.

Thanks for the comments both Ryan and Boris!

There definitely seems to be downside protection, as there’s tangible book of right around $900m. I gotta’ say though that it’s also hard not to like VisionMedia (VISN)…not as much equity but the earnings run-rate is impressive. Have you looked at VISN also?

Cheers….Ryan

The share price is 1/10 what it was a year ago, the longs have a way better chance of “buying low” then before. but the uncertainty of a serious bounce catalyst isnt offset by the silver lining or a belief in the continution of unbanization when there is new scarce job outlook in the cities. Also the company was slammed by a critical CCTV report much like Baidu. Whats really going to pick this share price up?
