Earbuds suck, of course. Wear good, comfortable headphones. I think people wear the earbuds because they think it somehow makes them cooler.

My theory is that they want people to know they have an ipod.

[/ QUOTE ]

cos they've always wondered what it'd be like to get mugged. people who use the earbuds are dumb on so many levels...

They're dumb? On many levels?

Maybe they just don't give a [censored].

[/ QUOTE ]

, they're asking to get mugged
, if they're trying to look stylish they're failing since everyone and their grandmother has an ipod at this point
, the sound quality sucks
, they are worse for your hearing than regular headphones

[/ QUOTE ]

I know zero people that have gotten mugged while wearing iPod earbuds, and I know a lot of people with iPods.

Maybe they're just using what's there and easy.

This is such a bs argument and would only ever be used by someone trying to bash these things. Earbuds are extremely functional for people that use their iPods while walking. I have to put mine in my backpack when i get to class, or my pocket when i get somewhere else, having big headphones would be a pain.



Stop being an idiot.

WTF are you talking about? I wear earbuds because I don't like lugging around big headphones when I go out, and I don't used the cliched white ones. I bought my own quality earbuds.

Are you actually bashing all people who use earbud headphones right here? This is a nice follow up to last week's bashing of all people who drink to get drunk in college. Stop being a hater.

There are plenty of reasons to buy earbuds, it is stupid to even discuss it.

I've always preferred full muff over buds for comfort reasons, but I'll probably give in and buy an inner ear canal Shure earphone sooner or later.

On the flip side, I prefer earbuds over huge muffs for comfort reasons. But I wear an IEM at my shows all the time, so maybe I'm just used to it.

Also Sennheiser makes a better IEM than Shure. The Shure ones are highly unreliable.

Where do you live? Cos I know several people who have had their iPods stolen in Brooklyn.

In any case, it's certainly true that the sound quality is terrible and that they're worse for your hearing than regular headphones.

I use the provided earbuds because they are small and easy to stick in your pocket which is the main reason most people use ipods. I dont give a [censored] if people know I have an ipod or not.
