I know the feeling - I have 88 GB of music, so only the Zune 120 can carry ALL of it. But the number of people like us that have huge amounts of music is quite small - the last study on this that I heard about said that the average person has less then 4 GB of music...which is why the small-capacity players are so popular. Microsoft has to go where the market is, so the Zune HD will very likely top out at 32 GB. I don't mind to much myself - I have my smaller Zunes set to sync music purchased in the last 90 days, so I have my new music to listen to.

We're in the stage with Flash-based MP3 players now that we were in with digital cameras when buying a 2 GB memory card cost $200. Now storage on digital cameras is practically irrelevant - memory cards are SO cheap. That's one reason why I wish Microsoft had done the Zune HD with a microSD memory card slot...then the Zune could grow as flash memory capacity grows.
