These experts really ought to start listening to their mums, then they would have know this YEARS ago!
Having said that, only yesterday on the Tube there was someone sharing his music with everyone - while using ear buds. And I was thinking how his hearing must be suffering and how a few years in the future we'd have deafness as a major problem.
Still, try telling kids they're doing damage to their hearing - they won't take any notice. No more than they will of any sound some years from now...
