I didn't watch any keynotes or read any threads. I read about the new iPhone announcement in a one page CNN article the next day because it was a more efficient use of my time and had all the relevant information.

you put them in, then you go somewhere and the strap of your bag brushes your ear and knocks one down the drain, then you get regular headphones and a dongle, the end

EarPods are great, they work for me and don't fall out and sound pretty good for earbuds. I will have to try airpods out because jogging with a cable sucks. I only have a 6S, though.

ya this year I bought like 4-5 pairs of $75-125 earbuds and none of them fit or sounded as good as the EarPods for me

I have a pair of custom-moulded earbuds which sound great but also have like 30dB isolation so you can't use them on the street unless you want to die

if i had such a thing i'd put them in on my way to work and take them out when i got home

then at work i'd put my normal cans overtop of them and turn them up until i could hear the high end

full isolation with built in mic's that you could mix in to your music would be best, you can even do noise cancellation for noisy environments

that beats radio guy needs to shut the gently caress up and stop talking, goddamn. zane low or whatever the gently caress his name is.

hey, let's take the stuff from FM radio that literally no one likes, like annoying DJs who talk over the music, and bring them to streaming music, because the old record exec and middle-aged dads in charge of Apple Music can't imagine it any other way.

trigger warning - Nilay Patel at the verge

quote:

Hey everyone — there have been questions about Chris Ziegler and his absence from The Verge in the past few weeks. I want to provide answers for those who have been worried about him.

First, Chris accepted a position at Apple. We wish him well.

Second, the circumstances of Chris' departure from The Verge raised ethical issues which are worth disclosing in the interests of transparency and respect for our audience. We're confident that there wasn't any material impact on our journalism from these issues, but they are still serious enough to merit disclosure.

Chris began working for Apple in July, but didn't tell anyone at The Verge that he'd taken a new job until we discovered and verified his dual-employment in early September. Chris continued actively working at The Verge in July, but was not in contact with us through most of August and into September. During that period, in the dark and concerned for Chris, we made every effort to contact him and to offer him help if needed. We ultimately terminated his employment at The Verge and Vox Media the same day we verified that he was employed at Apple.

Obviously having an Apple employee on The Verge staff is a conflict of interest. Vox Media Editorial Director Lockhart Steele stepped in to conduct an independent review of The Verge's work and staff interactions with Chris during the time he worked at Apple and Vox Media to determine if that conflict had manifested itself in any of our coverage or affected any of our editorial decisions.
