The only difference between them both is that Zune has a little more extra features.
Zune has a built in radio unlike the ipod. If you want a radio for ipod, it is a separate assescorie which would cost more. Also I believe Zune has a wireless sharing music thing. Zune has a bigger screen than the ipod.
Features
Ability to send photos, and some music files (not all music files may be shared) from Zune-to-Zune via Wi-Fi. DRM-protected sharable music files can be played only a maximum of three times on the device, and expire after three days whether they are played or not. Non-DRM songs may be played and sent without restriction. [2] Recipients cannot re-send music that they have received via the sharing feature.[3] Photo files may be shared without restriction.
Ability to flag tracks received from Zune-to-Zune transfer, a tool used so that a shared song may be purchased from the Zune Marketplace after it has expired.
Ability to play videos and view pictures.
Updateable firmware.
"ZuneTags", a field changeable username/profile visible to others who wirelessly scan the area for fellow Zune users.
The wallpaper on the Zune can be changed to any user-specified image.
The Zune will play standard podcast files, which are usually available in unprotected MP3 or AAC format. However, the Zune software lacks full podcast support, such as a directory and automatic downloading via RSS feeds. The Zune Team, however, has promised complete podcast support in the future. [1][4][5]
The player software will automatically convert most audio and video in a format not supported by the Zune into a format that is. (e.g. a video with a resolution of 720x540 will be converted to a resolution of 320x240 if necessary).[6]
Able to show other Zunes nearby what you are listening to or doing through advanced settings.
Support for Zune Digital Rights Management (DRM) (incompatible with other DRM schemes).
Able to add songs to a quick playlist without reconnecting to the Zune software.
Built-in FM radio, capable of showing song information on supported FM stations using RDS
