Not sure about the latest ipods, but when I bought my Zune a year ago it was because it had a built in radio tuner (and ipods did not) and I wanted to be able to listen to sports games while working outside on the weekends. I think some gyms broadcast audio from the TV's in the gym over radio, so maybe that's why he was using a Zune.
