Taking away the headphone jack was more likely so they could try to make you buy $200 wireless headphones that need to be replaced every few years.

    Every few years? Brave of you to assume that after owning them for 6 months or so I haven't sent all of my wireless earbuds through the wash because I didn't feel them in the pocket when doing laundry.

    Now I'm using over ear wireless headphones because I can't mistakenly wash a huge set of cans.

    Side note: I can wash your mom's huge set of cans
