Both have their propriety formats that they use - I prefer neither one.
So that's where the converting comes into play.

Why not check out the Creative Zen or Archos - both will play most divx w/o converting them. It's as simple as a drag and drop on the player.

I have the 30 gig and love it. So much easier then the pain in the butt iPod and iTunes :) So the few bucks more is worth it to me then dealing w/ propriety formats.

Yes it is a little bigger then the iPod or Zune but if you're looking to play video the screen size is a big as one of those - big plus.
I also take it running w/ me - not that big where it won't fit in your pocket.

No experience with the Zune at all - so I have no comparison.
iPods are good - most people I know with them have not had a problem with them. Zune though I think has dropped their prices.

I'd go to a local store that sells them and give them a 'test listen'.
