Really, does anyone need to be this irritating? When did we become incapable of living for a few minutes without our own personal soundtrack? And for those who will argue that it's better than headphones, merely being better than a stupid, dangerous idea is not the same as being a good idea

  • I would use that. Unless you live in a city centre it is going to make zero difference to peoples' attitudes. On top of that, if I stop anywhere and fancy relaxing, or a picnic, I've got music which will sound higher quality than a phone speaker.

    You must be old. ;)

    I like to listen to music properly - with all the road and wind noise I couldn't....

    But that product would have a good advantage - if you didn't like company whilst riding then just turn it on and nobody would want to ride with you! :D
