Does anyone else find that the iPod earphones break too frequently? Since buying my first iPod in July, I've had to return the earphones 3 times. Anyone else suffered the same problem?
Also, I'm currently deciding whether to splurge on some fine-ass Bang & Olufsen A8 Headphones...They look incredible, anyone else tried 'em out?
To answer your first question, I don't think they break frequently, but that's just me. I mean, I'm pretty careful with mine at least. (In no way am I saying you handle yours like shit so don't misunderstand.) THe only complaints I can probably say about the stock earphones is that they get dirty really quickly and the soft black protectors come off too easily... 😬
Regarding the A8 headphones, I personally don't like how they look. They kinda look uncomfortable. But dude, if you ever do buy them, tell us how they are. I'm thinking of maybe picking a new pair of earphones myself.
Yeah, some people have said they've never had a problem, but then others concur with my complaint. I also take care of my earphones, but I do wear them frequently when I'm out and about on my bike - I can't see how this would be a problem, though. Also, I listen to a lot of tunes with a lot of bass - hip-hop, rock, reggae - so, perhaps, that could be it...
I've only just spotted those B&O beauties, but I'll try them on this weekend...

Yes, i'm already getting these annoying 'pop' sounds when i have the volume up close to maximum. I've only had them for about a month too.

I don't know if this has been done before, if it has...delete away!Anyway, I'm currently caught between a rock and stone on whether or not to buy an i Pod or just get a regular MP3 player...Do they do pretty much the same thing or is there some undeniable reason why I should get an i Pod?
I checked out my friend's i Pod, and it certainly is a sweet looking baby...I love the way you just scroll around that circle to flick through songs...Also, how long does it take to download one of my CDs onto the i Pod?
I don't know much about this sort of technology, so speak to me like I'm an idiot...
Thanks.
