The regular Ipod headphones are made to be comfortable. Yet, some people still don't think that they are comfortable enough for them. They are also made more for sitting purposes than for active purposes such as jogging or other exercising activities. This is a huge drawback because most people will use their IPods the most when taking part in such activities than they ever would while they were in sitting mode.

Actually, you aren't alone. Many consumers don't like the regular Ipod headphone set, which is actually a pair of ear buds. Some just don't like ear bud type headphones. They say they are not comfortable. They don't like the way they fit in their ears.
