Someone noticed that I drive to customers with my Zune connected to an FM transmitter. Yep. It’s with me pretty much wherever I go. My old 30GB model is more than enough too. Although the 80GB is cheap enough that I might consider getting it… just because.
For the most part, I’m not listening to music though. I’m listening to audio podcasts while I’m driving. Here’s a sample of some of the audio stuff I subscribe to daily and the corresponding RSS feed that I use for my Zune. (All of these are available just by searching through the Zune Marketplace, so you really don’t need the RSS URL but just in case you want it…):
