Earphones dying on one side , what to do?

[sunnypoker]

I hate always having to buy new earphones because one of the sides die.

it's probably because of lack of care. i always just carry around the earphones in my pocket (along with the mp3 player)
and then take it out, untangle, and listen.
but i'm sure a ton of others (if not everyone) does that too.

what do u do when the earphones die just on one side?
just go buy new one over and over??
or is there some sort of a magical earphone that won't break easily??

I thought this was a medical issue at first.

Nothing you can do about it really. You can try effing with the cord, but it's usually just an extremely temp solution.

I'd suggest buying 1 cheap pair and 1 good pair. When you're mobile, use the cheap pair.

I had this problem, the wierd thing is I went to radio shack to get some earbuds and u couldn't get good ones for less than $50. wtf?

As for the headphone problem. It annoys the crap outta me, but yeah, i just end up going through hundreds of pairs of headphones.
