Emergent Future

While it actually surprises me, I found myself making a new purchase recently. These are a spiffy (and nice) pair of headphones that seem to go along quite well with my new MP3 (well, PMP) player.

I am actually quite happy with the purchase. I've been using poor quality ear-buds for a while that... well, don't do the music justice and hurt my ears. Of course, that's not just in the fact that they're uncomfortable, but rather that they blocked out sound... not at all. Which meant anytime I was outside (in the middle of a huge city), I couldn't hear anything over the noise of cars, trains, etc... Thus I would turn the volume up a bit higher than I should. Plus these are also nicer to those around me, as they keep the sound in.

So, they're healthier, they look slick, I can hear music while outside, and they sound fantastic. I'm content.
