While Apple’s bundled earphones that comes with iPhones and iPods are actually pretty decent if one weren’t too fussy, one of the major problems that owners are experiencing would be how these earphones have the tendency to keep slipping out of their ears. For some who are lucky, the earphones fit perfectly, although based on the majority of complaints, there are many who find it annoying that they have to keep adjusting their earphones to make it stay in place.

Thanks to the folks at Ohm Industrial Design whose founders were a little fed-up of their Apple earphones dropping out of their ears, they have cooked up a small piece of plastic that when attached to the earphones, should help keep it in placed. The attachment is called Sprng and it’s basically a small plastic clip that attaches to each side of the earphone, and helps hold them in place in your ear (as pictured above).

According to the designers at Ohm, “With all the millions of ear pods that Apple gives away with their products, it would be a shame if people did not use them because they fall out.” In any case the Sprng attachments can be had for $10 and will be available for purchase via Ohm’s website, although it should be noted that they are only compatible with the new earpods, and not the older models.

It seems that more companies are getting on board the music streaming service bandwagon these days, with Apple and their iTunes Radio, and Google with Google Play Music All Access. For those planning to use Google’s services, back when the company announced it they revealed that they would be charging $9.99 per month, which admittedly feels a bit pricey, however for Verizon owners it seems that according to a rumor, there is a good chance that the $9.99 could be included in your carrier billing, so perhaps a more streamlined method of payment might make the $9.99 seem a little less expensive, perhaps?

With Verizon currently offering their customers six months free All Access when they purchase a new DROID device, we guess extending the access by including it into carrier billing would be a more convenient solution for some customers, not to mention it will probably help Google net a ton of new subscribers somewhat effortlessly. What do you guys think? Would you be interested in subscribing to Google’s music streaming service if you could pay for it as part of your carrier bills?

I guess you can say that social media is definitely playing a large role in the lives of many, especially for the connected ones out there, so much so that we even have a Twitter experience hotel that is located in Spain. Well, one thing about social media is this – it can be highly addictive, but it is also one of the most efficient tools when it comes to spreading word out on a particular topic, or even just to inform the whole world of what you’re eating at that particular moment. This pair of Muzik headphones, however, is unique and different from typical audio gear in the sense where it is meant to see action in helping you share, experience and discover music.

The premise of the Muzik headphones lies in what is called ‘Social Smartware,’ where that would describe the seamless connection of consumer electronic devices, content and social media platforms in order to make music discoverable and shareable in a jiffy without much effort. Muzik will roll out a bunch of other smart audio products later this year, where among them include the on-ear wireless headphone that will merge high-fidelity audio in a design that boasts of capacitive touch controls, something that we see more and more of in high end smartphones these days. Each Muzik headphones can let you natively share your currently playing trackon Facebook and Twitter, while the integrated accelerometer knows when you have removed the Muzik headphones, stopping whatever track that is playing at that moment. Smart, no? [Product Page]
