    See just for a laugh what you should do is connect your iPods headphones to some cheap €5 radio....people will 'supposedly' think your cool and if you get robbed you only down round €30.
    Personally I use my 3G 20GB iPod with Sennheiser HD280 Pros, so theyre not bad :D , Ipod headphones are terrible.(only listen to .wav aswell, cant stand some mp3s quality)

    why would knackers wanna rob i-pods. I doubt they have a pc, let alone the know-how of how to use one. And who the hell buys a second hand i-pod with no usb cable/software/charger.

    good point. on a personal note, i think the headphones that come with the ipod arent that bad. i had a problem with the wire on them coming apart and requested a new pair. ordered them on friday, they were here on monday. cant argue with that

    ahh the power of marketing...

    Anybody see the ipods on TV3 this morning? a guy from a shop was on showing all the accessories and better earphones etc. the presenter was asking "so none of this stuff comes with it?" and asking if it would in future.
    Then he asked the guy "do you actually like ipods" since he was pointing out all the shortcomings and stuff that didnt come with it.

    Also, I think the standard iPod earphones are decent enough, I would be willing to pay for a better pair if there was a major improvement in sound quality, is this usually the case??
    Yes. Check out www.ipodlounge.com
    I got a pair of shure E3C and the sound quality is amazing, hearing instruments and background lyrics in songs I have listened to for 20 years and never noticed before

    Arg, i hate seeing people with Ipod headphones hanging out. They do it on purpose as well. The amount of people i see with their iPod in their hand and a big long trail to their ears. I have an ipod and the first thing i did was change the headphones. Its becoming a bit of a statement.
