Let there be music...

Wired threw up an interesting feature recently, about the music listening habits of the iPod generation (amongst which I myself number - don't I, my precioussss). As the article describes, I too primarily keep mine on random shuffle. It's a seductive experience, never knowing which track may come next, and it's always a delight when a favourite track, long unheard, begins to play.

But I have begun to hanker for a little continuity in my music. There are many albums, which I very much enjoy listening to in full, but which I haven't heard in the longest of whiles now. I used to enjoy just putting on a CD whilst reading, but I tend not to anymore. Largely I attribute this to the kindness I show my flatment in the room next door - the flat we share is cursed with annoyingly audio-transparent walls and as such I try to make as little noise as possible. I'm definitely pondering the purchase of a set of wireless headphones. I'm in two minds about it, since a decent pair is probably slightly expensive and, after all, I expect to be in a dwelling of my very own before the year is out. But that day is not here yet and, looking over my CD collection, I do think the headphones might be worth it. Any audiophiles out there have any suggestions?
