For sure.

Maybe we're so inundated that we've internalized it? A semi-related thing I've noticed: when people talk about movies now, it's never "oh I liked it, it was neat" or "it was sappy." Everybody talks about the cinematography this, the character arcs that, did you see that tracking shot??
It's weird to see the "inside baseball" aspects of movies/music/storytelling/etc creep into random conversations.
Because in general, BT headphones are great and I understand that people love them. But Airpods are not among the better ones in my experience. They drop out more than my other BT headphones, and the fact that they have no volume control is just unbelievably stupid to me.
I didn't think BT headphones were worth anything until I tried them. They are surprisingly liberating for someone active like me.
AirPods are one fine product for daily casual use. Obviously they aren't going to meet an audiophiles demand at $150 but AirPods Pro might even be enough in that case.
My AirPods drop out at the rate of once a month or something. When it happens it's a quick fix and they have been nothing but convenient otherwise.
Would never use wired headphones again unless I am trying to analyze a Beethoven piece.
