An iPod owner in Louisiana has filed a lawsuit against Apple Computer, alleging that its iPod music player has the potential to cause hearing loss.
Filed by Seattle law firm Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro, the proposed nationwide class-action suit could include more consumers in the future and cover the breadth of the iPod line.
The suit alleges that iPods are designed defectively and do not provide sufficient warning against possible hearing loss, even though the company includes a warning with each iPod, cautioning that hearing loss might occur if earphones or headphones are used at high volume.

No action may be brought under this title alleging infringement of copyright based on the noncommercial use by a consumer for making digital musical or analog musical recordings.
Yada yada yada, there is always someone trying to make a buck out of possible stupidity. You can ruin your hearing using an old Sony walkman also. What about all the stereos in cars that are so powerful? Now there is a really good chance to make some bucks.

I swear to fucking god. If I ever meet this person I am going to make them die a slow painful death. People who try to push crap like that piss me off.
Ok guys, how about we launch a lawsuit that has a chance? Lets get together, and sue the zipper manufacturers, as Im willing to bet that most of us know how damn dangerous those things can be. That is an obvious design flaw that has been allowed to continue too many years, causing untold pain and suffering.

Hey girls just think, would you want your bras made with fasteners made of metal teeth, that closed in such a manner, over your breasts?

Hunter you make a fantastic point. I too speak from extensive experience. Zippers endanger lives.
It sure makes a good case for the return to the button fly.
