Can I ask why is it that you say that cassettes and vynils have better sound quality than CDS?, I'm really ignorant on audio topics.

By the way, has anyone here tried active noise suppression/cancellation headphones/earphones (Sennheiser HDC451, Sony MDR-NC11, JVC HA-NC100, Panasonic RPHC100, etc.) on an aeroplane? I don't want to fork out between GBP 30 to 90 for a pair of noise suppression/cancellation headphones or earphones without knowing how good they are first. Do they work well on an aeroplane?

It's only when you try to use your MP3 player on an aeroplane that you realise how damn noisy is the cabin of a civil airliner. I have to really crank up the volume of my iRiver H140 in order to be able to listen to it in an aeroplane, even using in-ear earphones. This cannot be doing my eardrums any good.

Can anyone recommend a specific make/model of active noise reduction headphones or earphones for an MP3 player? (I'm not talking about in-ear earphones - I've got an expensive pair of Sony Fontopia earphones already and the aircraft cabin is still too noisy - but about active noise suppression/cancellation technology.) Anyone use one of these active noise suppression/cancellation things?

OK, I finally plumped for Sennheiser PXC 250 after reading many good reviews (see Amazon.com, for example). Light, foldable, and good noise cancellation on aeroplanes.

I personally don't like iPods, they're too overrated. My brother has a cool mp3 player, it has the same amount of memory of a iPod, but its cooler. its a Creative.

I also have a Creative player, and I really prefer it to any iPod ... mainly this reason:

  • You can use online subscription based services like Napster or Yahoo Unlimited.

Listen to millions of tracks as long and often as you want for $15/month ... tell my again why iTunes is so great!
