    The price difference isn’t really that big you can get a decent pair of anger earphones for £15 on amazon.

    Personally my wireless ones last several times longer than any wired headphones I’ve had, as the cable would eventually break and I would have to do the think where you wrap the cable a certain way or else one earbud wouldn’t work.

    I really can’t stand people that make this argument, I felt the same way at first, but then I actually started using Bluetooth headphones and they are frankly just better, in almost every way.

    And if you really want wired headphones still, you can just buy an inline adapter for like £2.


  • Yes I did the same thing at my uni halls, said fuck paying for multi device, bought a router, named it like a phone hot-spot and never had issues.

    In reality no one that works there is paid nearly enough to care about the ISP’s terms and conditions, and even if someone from the ISP comes to do maintainance or something, they won’t be there to snoop for rule breakers and even if they are, if the SSID looks like a phone hot-spot, they won’t care, and even if they do they’re not going to trace it back to you directly and even if they do, you have the email saying its okay which will shift any and all blame away from you.

    So just go for it, there’s a 99.999999999999999999% chance you won’t get caught and even if you do you won’t get any blame because you asked the company.
