For context, the parent said: > The fact that my headphones need a AAA battery Just because some headphones do not need batteries says nothing about these specific headphones being talked about. Both can exist at the same time (a pair that requires batteries, and many that do not.) For example, Bose Noise-Cancelling Headphones, which are quite popular, require AAA batteries: http://worldwide.bose.com/productsupport/en_us/web/qc15/page.html#article_type=top_article+track_article&article_href=../article_266_installing_the_battery/page.html%23article_body http://worldwide.bose.com/productsupport/en_us/web/qc15/page...

Right - by his own choice as justification to eliminate the 3.5mm port. That's a ridiculous reason to claim we should get rid of one of the most widely used ports in existence. If he didn't want to have a cord and a battery he should've bought different headphones... Nobody forced him into having both. Nothing apple is doing will change the fact that some headphones will require both a cord and a battery either. So it's a borderline irrelevant comment.
