I am looking in to getting a 30 gig ipod video but I also saw a creative zen MP3 player that also has 30gig and can play video so I just want to know which one will have better video quality and sound quality.

I can help, I have both the Ipod video and the Creative Zen Vision. They both rock, but I got my Zen for about 50 bucks cheaper, plus I like how the screen is a bit bigger. Go with the Zen Vision.
But if you want my full opinion, get a Zune. It's crazy awesome, it's just like an Ipod Video, except with a bigger screen and much more friendly to new people. Plus, you can put pictures in it and make it your background.

I would hold out for the Zune. You wont have to use crappy software like iTunes and it will allow you to play downloaded songs from nearly every download site. Ipods are poppular because they make them for dummies and there are a lot of dummies out there. You can do so much more with other MP3 players. I have an Archos and I love it. It is a hard drive and has a radio tuner and a voice recorder so I can sleep in class and not miss a thing. Don't just get an Ipod because they are popular. I saw a new Philips video one the other day that looked pretty sweet also.

To paraphrase Apple's own commercials, the iPod just works! My family and I have iPod shuffles, Nanos, and the new video iPod in the house and they are terrific (I also have an iRiver mp3 player that has a battery life of about 30 minutes).
And as far as the Zune goes, the Chicago Sun-Times published a review recently, and HATED Microsoft's entry into the mp3 market (see link below).
UPDATE: Another review of the Zune, this one from the Christian Science Monitor.

I prefer an iPod because it has a long guarantee and it can be replaced if it breaks!! I'm not sure about the Mp3 player but I think you should get the iPod

the later ipods seem to have got over their habit of going wrong just after the guarantee had expired. mp3 players are easier to add content to from any PC. ipod you have to have itunes which alot of people don't have or want.
