Me. I own both wired and wireless earphones and I want to be able to use both.
Fair. Personally I prefer wireless, since my headphone wires break all the time due to heavy use, but I can understand, why you'd like to be able to use both.
Wireless headphones have to be charged so often, it's just annoying. Good old trusty wired headphones never need to be charged.
Not so true. I use a set of “wireless” where the two ears are connected around the back of my neck. (A pair of beatx). These have 12hr battery and I listen a lot. I only kill the batteries on long ski days (the cold probably bring the battery life down a bit).
All my complaints at this point are lack of options in this mostly perfect form factor.
(Better fit in my ears, better sound, etc). This isn’t a wired/wireless problem.
