Quality headphones aren't cheap, and as they (headphones) are not essential anyway, it's just an extra service they're providing, I'm sure they don't really want to go out of their way to pay good money for better ones. Plus the better they are, the more likely the are to be stolen, hmmm? Mike.	Mike (15)

We found that some clients could and would break almost anything.. even the occational keyboard. As for headphones, I personally would rather have my own, not just because of quality, but rather that than something thats been wrapped around other peoples nit infested hair and the suchlike anyway.
