@iPod - LOL

Other than that, didn't think Colbert's answer was especially funny....

@Sam: You can have a Zune and an iPhone. It's not unheard of. My friend has one of each.

Did you watch the Colbert Report last night? He listed "buying a Zune" as proof that one is completely insane.

Looks like he was being sarcastic about owning a Zune. Besides, he's shown his iPhone on the air several times.

He *needed* a Zune to listen to his prized Watergate tape. iPods have gapless playback.

Har, har!

Although this guy has good taste in MP3 players, he's still quite the commie in American clothing... >:(

I was actually with Steven Colbert yesterday and he squirted me some John Denver. So I promise you that he does have a Zune and loves it.

At least he won't notice any skipping issues while listening to his 'eighteen exquisitely silent minutes of erased watergate tape.'

I subcribe to GQ, and read the interview. Every answer he gave was just colbert being colbert (not to be taken serious, whether funny or not).

Are there any other celebrity (who is not a comedian) we know for sure owns a Zune?

For those that haven't read the article, not one question is answered seriously.

For Zuney Toon. If they asked Colbert what song was on his -MP3 player-, he probably would have answered "(A) it's MiniDisc player, and (B)..." If they said "What's one DVD you can watch again and again" He would have answered, "It's Flashdance and actually I prefer it in it's original form, on Beta."

He takes whatever is asked/whatever is expected and gives you a twist. It's his style.

The likely truth is that whether he owns an iPod, Zune or Zen. He still would have answered with the most known contrarian answer he could think of. Maybe he does own a Zune and maybe it's his regular listening device. Either way, he likely said Zune to be different, not to clarify.

Honestly, who cares what he listens to. I just think it's funny that Cesar quoted what he believes to be Colbert's one honest answer out of ten jokes.

Zuney Toon- yes, but it would make less sense and it's not quite as funny. Ipod is associated with hip and cool. Zune is associated with nerds and geeks (Bill Gates)... and the super rich. The super rich tend to be more conservative like Colbert. Get it? BTW, I hate Ipods and don't believe they make you cool like the rest of the world thinks. But the joke still works when you get the social commentary.

If he was joking, it's a pretty lame joke. You have to realize that most people don't actually care about mp3 player rivalries. Seriously folks....
