Well, my old Sony headphones, though fairly nice, have been broken for a month now. My new iPod Earbuds which came with it are very good for compactness, but the music quality is crap I am considering taking my portable music to the next level. That's right boys and girls, I'm considering getting me some BOSE headphones. There is the slight fact that they would cost as much as the iPod But I think it would be worth it. They would save my iPod battery life because they actively cancel out the noise around you - it detects the noises from around you milliseconds before it hits your ear and generates an opposite noise that cancels it out, effectively SILENCING your environment. This would mean I wouldn't have to crank the volume just to hear it Also, it's BOSE, so it will have better sound quality in those headphones than most home stereos They are also fairly compact, and extremely comfortable. Check out the Bose page for them- they're friggen awesome LinkWatcha think?

I like 'em other than the fact their too big (for me ) and are 300 friggin' bucks! (They only reduce sound by alot, not completely get rid of it. My Great Aunt's Daughter's Husband's Sister has a pair. Very comfy. )

I'm fine with the size. They may be a little large, but they're not clunky, they're well shaped really. And yes, they are much better at reducing constant noises (such as plane engines, as they were designed to do) than voices or whatever. Still seem worth it to me- They're Bose. I care much more about the sound quality than you, you value portability more
