They warranty them, but its an annoying process to go through every couple of months.

Does anyone have recommendations for an over-the-ear headphone without noise cancellation and a plug that won't break right away?
The inability to get a straight answer on the BF is stunning.

The Sony Sport headphones [clip over the ear] work very well, and they let in ambient noise. I bend the clip to give them a nug fit. They are rugged, I've used them for running and biking for years. They also do a good job of cutting wind noise. That said, my favorite is the Scan Sound single (stereo) earbud, I can wear it all day.
