Last week I broke my headphones again, so I’m back to the iPod earbuds.
A couple of years ago I only rarely saw anyone with the white cable. Last year there were reports of strangers sharing music. Now I see iPod people everywhere. It makes sense – Apple has been selling millions of the things.
So since Apple has sold out, people are hiding their iPods or asserting their old school cred.
Sometimes I feel stupid wearing those very distinct earbuds. I don’t want to be in some cult. I’m not trying to show off. I just wanted all my music in one place. Not that my iPod is big enough for that…
Anyway, they don’t sound as good. Time to get soldering.
