Sounds are more muffled, and extraneous background noise interferes. When I use ear buds, some those competing noises are eliminated, plus I can concentrate on what I want to hear. I find this especially true of of TV audio, because they don't want you to see the mics in the picture. You can find inexpensive ear buds almost anywhere: Walgreens, Walmart, Best Buy. Try a pair before you invest in expensive headphones. Check you TV for a headphone jack first.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00159288023048032948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-785311472371282139.post-60897397348908044722020-03-25T12:57:40.993-04:002020-03-25T12:57:40.993-04:00I have Prime, but I don't think I would like e...I have Prime, but I don't think I would like earphones or headphones at all. I don't even remember signing up for Prime but I obviously did, and I love it. Because I don't drive I order online and until just lately my orders are taking a day or two longer - this is because of the virus making people afraid to go out shopping in the stores.Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-785311472371282139.post-22989030443790044772020-03-25T12:53:36.037-04:002020-03-25T12:53:36.037-04:00I don't have headphones.

I keep in touch with family via email mostly and if I talk to anyone I prefer to do it face to face.<br /><br />One of the problems I have with learning something new such as Skype or Facetime, is that as soon as I learn how to do it they will change/upgrade it and then for me it will be like starting all over again. There are so many developers who want to stay employed, so their success is based on changing everything and changing it often. Many times the changes are not even helpful, so I'm just not buying any of it.Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-785311472371282139.post-18183440747189323552020-03-25T12:35:19.819-04:002020-03-25T12:35:19.819-04:00Skype is a great idea for "getting together&q...Skype is a great idea for "getting together" with people. But earphones would probably help. Order them on line and have them delivered but I have found that Amazon is trying to force everyone into paying for Prime by making the delivery of any other orders take 2 and 3 weeks.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-785311472371282139.post-38573349023039274062020-03-25T12:32:00.431-04:002020-03-25T12:32:00.431-04:00Sometimes my mind wanders towards wondering when d...Sometimes my mind wanders towards wondering when djt or one of his kids will get the virus, but then I have to shake my head and get rid of thoughts like that.

I hate living in Texas and always being lumped with idiots. I think Trump has yet to realize that neither he, nor any of his cronies are in charge right now, or in the near future. Covid19 is. When somebody close to them gets hit, maybe they will wake up. Late already, though.
