ZeroMQ is not a messaging broker, it's a socket abstraction. (I interpret the zero in ZeroMQ to mean "no".) So they are not comparable at all. You can build a broker with ZeroMQ, which people have done [1], in the same sense that you can build a broker on plain TCP sockets.

I believe the same applies to Nanomsg.
