iPod Ear

I think I've developed "iPod Ear". I also think I'm a hypercondriac. I've been reading all these articles recently about how everyone's using iPods now and you need to be careful not to have them up too loud. It's a shame it's taken the success of iPod to highlight such a serious problem. I don't think I have mine up REALLY loud. I mean, c'mon, there's people on the train who REALLY like to share their music with the ENTIRE CARRIAGE. Lil ol me? I keep my podcasts down REAL LOW. And I've been listening to headphones for around twenty years. Bit of a coincidence the pain has started now dontchathink?
