There are headphones out there that sell you the wires, so you replace the wire instead of replacing the whole cans. I have a pair of sony mdr-v6 and have had them for about 2 years, they still work perfectly fine.

The other problem I've had is around the joints or the volume control, very fine wires that seem to snap easily.

I wasn't sure if its just a matter of them being made with an expiry date or if there's better ones out there, but I'll check those out, cheers.
