Default I pod or Zune

As a Microsoft enthusiest I bought a Zune, and I like it much better than the I pod. I pods are still more popular though so what are yoyr thoughts on the MP3 battle.

Ipod. Zunes have annoying MP3 copy protection schemes in them.

Microsoft enthusiast with the Ubuntu logo in his sig?

Zunes have the extremely annoying DRM, and, well, it's a MS product. Major obstacle in my book.

Ipod ,Nothing I've seen or read gives me any reason to change to a Zune - actually gives me more reasons to stick with the Ipod.

I'm an iPod guy. I don't see any reason not to use an iPod and the Zune isn't a very convincing competitor.

I'm sticking with my iPod. The fact that the Zune isn't sold here in Australia is one reason, but the fact that there is more accesories out there for ipod than Zune in another reason.
