They do add a lot of convenience for everyday activities. I'd never want to go back to wired for running, the cable flapping around is just too annoying. I also like them more for commuting and (grocery) shopping, I just kept getting tangled up when putting a bag or backpack on and off. But nobody is forced to use them. If you're on a budget, get an adaptor that isn't clunky. For audiophile needs, adaptors, different cables, mobile DACs or dedicated music players are usually used, the latter usually with headphone jacks. permalink fedilink source parent
