Apple, creator of all things white, have screwed me over. Every iPod I’ve had needs a good pair of headphones. I’m not an audiophile (All audiophiles are paedophiles, fact), but I do like a good pair of headphones. The headphones that came with each iPod where fine, just what I needed. But once my third pair broke in 2.5 years, I need to get a new pair.
At my local Apple store, A pair of headphones is £25, or in-ear headphones are £20. Surely you can’t get something better for less? That’s true. First up, there crap in the ears. It feels like having a dry wet willy. The sound is not as good the included phones. Then, 6 weeks after I brought them, the right headphone split in two, and the wires inside snaped. Great, can’t hear half of the song. To sum it up, the Apple In-Ear Headphones suck.
I went to HMV, got myself a pair of Apple headphones for £20. Much better sound, much better quality. Feels good and sounds better. Screw you Apple, thats the last time I buy anything from you! But that iPod Touch is rather tempting…
i don’t quite understand.. What headphones are the good ones?
The ones that come with every iPod are great. The o”in ear” headphones are shit.
These are the bad ones?

Yep, those are them. The ear phones of Satan.
