I have a friend that was in the music industry for decades, and listening to music was a significant aspect of his job.

To this day (he’s retired), he won’t use wireless (even ones with bespoke connections), or ANC headphones.

I use AirPods when I take my morning walks. The shitty quality is actually a plus, because I can hear the cars that try to run me over (I walk at 5:30 AM, and people are not at the top of their game, at that time).

I have a couple of pairs of Bose QC headphones, for in-home listening. There’s nothing [wireless] that comes close, for ANC.

The new regular AirPods are interesting to me.
