Blow it out your ears!!



Amongst all the new year hoopla, I have been keeping my eye on the news as usual and came across this gem from yahoo in which Pete Townshend from The Who is giving a warning to iPod users (like myself) to keep the volume low so that the tymapanics don't get blown. I guess when people were walking the walk with the Walkman back in the day, your hearing was much less important OR MAYBE....JUST MAYBE the news is so slow and mediocre, that we are stuck with a famous band guitarist recommending that we keep our volume down since the iPod is such a media darling and there were no shark attacks to report lately. Sheesh...I hope this is not a preview of how great news reports will be this year....

Yet another "gem" from an Apple cult follower like yourself :P

I do think it is your (and everyone's choice) to do what they please with their "ears"; I just hope you're not insinuating that the iPod is better for your ears than the other players.

Hey,
I am not part of the cult. I just give props where props are due...It's hard to convince sheep not to follow other sheep when they think they are just walking in a line, but that line leads to the slaughter...haha.

I agree that it is my choice to blow out my ears (I NEVER turn up high volume with ear muffins on) and that is why I find it moronic for news outlets to report on such things...This is one of many stories I have seen over the past few weeks...And I would suggest you be kind to your music and play with an iPod. Your ears will thank you.... :)

LOL! Sorry, I haven't reached your status when I can blow $$ away just to be cool. The music quality is the same, if not better with other non-Apple playas.

well...he's Pete Townshend dude! They make it on front page even when they fart!
