Lots of people ask me why I chose to use a Creative Zen instead of an iPod and Rhapsody instead of iTunes. The reason is simple: I'm music junkie. I have about 1,500 songs on my Creative Zen (that I use as my car stereo) and over 5,000 songs on my computer (that I rotate onto my Zen). How do I afford legally obtaining all this music? I rent it for about $150 a year.

So, is it better to rent or own your music? If your a "normal" person who enjoys listening to a rotation of about fifty to one hundred songs, buying those songs is the way to go. However, if your a complete music freak like me, renting from a music service is the best way to support your insatiable appetite.
