Steady positioning of Ipod Earphones in your Ear using Facial Cotton
May 14, 2007
Do you ever have a problem with iPod’s stock earphones? I mean for you who has big ear holes surely know what I’m talking about. Yup, those teeny-weenie small earphones seems does not fit with your ear holes. You got this huge ear holes yet they only produce small earphones for iPods.
Well, the default workaround is to use the stock black ear buds that comes with iPods. This will make the diameter of the earphones a bit larger so it can fit your big ass ear holes. But you know the problem with those black ear buds? It isn’t as firm as you think. When you covered your earphones with it, it tends to loose itself at times. And most of the times you won’t notice until it gone. Well you can replace it of course, Apple always give you two sets of spare ear buds. But it only a matter of time until the case above resolute again.
There is another method. When you can’t (or won’t) use an ear bud, you can use a facial cotton to fill-in the gap between your ear holes and the earphones. What? Facial cotton? Are you serious? Yup! In fact I am.
Just put your earphones in your ear. Plug it as firm as necessary then scrap a little cotton and put it where the gaps between your ear hole and earphone are. Don’t put to much cotton or you’ll end up like some guy/girl who has an ear problems or something.
Yes, it might look weird and it probably won’t be comfortable when you’re the kind of people who like to plug and unplug the earphones all the time. However, when it comes to steady positioning of earphones it sure does a good job. In addition, you will get a secluded sound environment when you enjoying music from your iPod.

According to Scoble, some regular iPhone user has the same problem too after the update that Apple released. It's getting hotter now. :) - #
