It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Good customer service definitely helps mitigate any anti-corporate distrust, but when it comes down to it, while I'd rather see a local cafe on the corner than a Starbucks, I'd still rather see a Starbucks there than a McDonald's, KFC or Cold Stone.
