My hearing's half shot, due to prior occupation and just age, so to keep what I have left, I try to remember to use hearing protection on the job; I'm noticing many of the guys using ipods. They say it is just like hearing protection. How can something you stick in your ears, that makes noise, be protecting your hearing? And is using an ipod more or less safe than using sound deadening foam plugs? Thanks for your input on this.
