    Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. 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.

    Thank you for providing this valuable resource for educators and historians. I’m sharing the House Divided site with family historians who are sharing their ancestors’ stories with video. The article examining the photo of Beecher’s speech and indentifying Garrison was exquisite. I love this stuff!
