Re: State of the game?
 

remember when mp3 players used to play mp3's and phones used to be just phones....

Re: State of the game?
 

Phone is about the only thing I dont have on my MP3 player.
Ipod Classic.
80 Gig, music, videos, recorded tv shows, photos, text files (mostly programs that Im working on and might want to think about), and flash games. Im a very relaxed person when Im standing in lines.

The interesting thing was that I wasnt much into MP3's until it was prescribed by my doctor (for my tinnitus)

Really? I have Ménière's disease, or at least had it. It destroyed the hearing in one ear. I worry a bit at wearing headphones and listening to music in case it ruins my good ear. Why would a doctor prescribe MP3s for Tinitus?

Re: State of the game?
 

Tinnitus has many possible causes. For many people its too many loud concerts when they were young, or working around loud things like airplanes.

In my case, I spent too much time in computer rooms and such. It affected both by vision and my hearing. My tinnitus is more from deprivation than excess. My ears fill in the gaps in my hearing range with white noise. I needed to expand both my eyesight (get into the sun more, look to distances, try to read street signs, etc) and I had to expand my hearing such as listening to fairly loud sounds for an hour a day. Not to irritate the neighbors with my stereo I went the MP3 player and headphones route. Now Im hooked and dont know what I did without it. Without MP3's chores are just chores, now they are aerobics (dancing thru my chores).
