A few days ago, Apple increased the iPod Touch’s memory from 16GB to 32GB. ‘course, they also increased the price tag from $399 to $499. So if you’ve got your eye on those 32GB but aren’t too hot about paying five hundred bucks for it, Creative’s giving you a cheaper option. The 32GB Zen is now thirty bucks cheaper and half the price of the iPod Touch at $299. Yep, I’d definitely get the Zen over the iPod Touch. At the end of the day, all I really want is to hear my music; I don’t care for those extra iPhone-like features. Besides, Creative gives better quality and balanced sound over Apple, whose headphones are a piece of crap (I swear, people only use those for the status symbol).
