No, it's notbecause they think you're going deaf. Hearing aid manufacturer Starkey Laboratories has gotten into thebusine of creating custom-molded iPod earbud headphones out of either hard plastic or a ecial, long lastingfoam. The company's aim is to not only create highly customized, durable and noise-reducing headphones for the iPod(they make them for bluetooth phones as well), but to also reduce the stigma that often accompanies in-ear hearingaids. I think it's an interesting idea. Starkey is still co idering the marketing strategy, so keep youreyes peeled if you're interested in the ultimate in custom earbuds.
