Besides, if I got jacked while out walking while listening to Ballistic Radio on earbuds, I would never ever be able to live that down.
Not to mention being able to hear cars and stuff like that. I'm always amazed to see people jogging or bicycling in the street with earbuds or even headsets. It seems like the texting driver and the Bose-wearing cyclist are just a match made in insurance heaven.
Actually, about the only time I use earbuds is when I'm on airplanes. I just don't like being deprived of a sense like that.
When I'm playing World of Warcraft here at home, I almost never get the full stereo effect from my Logitech G930's, because I usually leave one ear uncovered so I can hear Bobbi and the cats.
