...turns out that our iPod just killed off our fifth pair of earphones. Fifth! The original, then we bought the earbuds kind, resorted to using our old earphones...all came to the same end. First, static can be heard in one side, then later on one of the earphone will not emit any sound. Jiggling the connection might bring back sudden stereophonic happiness, but only for a second or so before it dies off again.
As to the lifespan of each earphones, honesty we can't remember. Some longer some shorter. But how can they die like that in the first place? It never happened with any of our other gadgets before! Not like we manhandle the iPod/earphones roughly, although we might unplug the earphones from the iPod rather often. Not to mention the occasional yanking outs when the cord gets caught on something. Still, 5 pairs of earphones is a bit too much!
You would have thought that after bombing for the iPod that's it, no more further expenses. Mana tahu now we've to occasionally invest in new earphones (we've totally run out of any more spares sitting at home). Well, at least we can get green-coloured earphones. Or maybe get back the white iPod ones.
Has anyone else ever had this problem? Ours be an iPod Video 30GB.

Henry: We've said it somewhere before, we don't look at the iPod prices anymore ever since we've gotten ours. Why give ourselves heartache?
Fer: And just what is being stored in the iPod then? :D
Jason: While earphones cost a Pop-Pop firecracker then, and doesn't hurt so much.
