In 2010 i bought one before embarking on a road trip across Europe. I don’t think I used it though, but i kept it just in case.

I only have 1 (youtube) but on occasion i will subscribe to a service if there’s a tv show i want to watch.

Currently watching pottery throw down on channel 4 but i can’t purchase a subscription without a British card, so I’m watching with ads…

Wireless are more convenient for most use cases. I like the compactness of wireless earbuds, no tangled wires, and the charging case. I can even use just one bud at a time.

However, wired headphones have some advantages in rare use cases that wireless can’t handle yet:

• connecting two headsets at once so 2 people han watch a movie on a plane. Bluetooth can stream sound to only one device at a time (at least on android). With Jack you can just use a splitter
• switching between devices easily. Just unplug and plug where you want it. With Bluetooth you have disconnect and reconnect.
• you can easily plug it into aux without any pairing process, just plug and play. With rental cars i noticed the device memory is often full and i have to remove a device before pairing. Not as seamless as audio jack for once off uses.

I don’t mind missing audio jack, but at least make usb c dongles interchangeable. Iirc you can’t use the same dongles on samsung and Pixel device. I ordered one that did not work.

Beach, swimming, hikes…

Anything with any computing power an internet connection can be a target. It will likely become a part of a bot net used to ddos, spam, or crack passwords. In addition, it’ll give hackers access to any accounts you’re logged in to, such as apple ID, email bank etc, so it could be further used to steal your identity or money.

Because it’s so old and full of vulnerabilities, it makes it an easy target. If it gets hacked, it’ll most likely be automatic process, without any intervention from the hacker, and there may be no signs that the device is infected.
