In this case that would be wrong. The headphone manufacturers complained that good foam costs too much and were allowed to get away with tissue paper and now everyone pays for allowing lobbyists and lawyers run the FCC and ignore good design principles On Feb 29, 2012 3:01 PM, "Bob Bruninga" bruninga@usna.edu wrote:
I finally figured out a good analogy about the LightSquared and GPS fiasco.
There is a "music room" where people can go and, with headphones, listen to their own music. No one disturbs anyone else. Everyone is happy.
A LightSquared rock band comes into the room and begins to play at max volume, and then insists there should be no problem because the headphones work just fine in providing the isolation between what each person is listening to.
Therefore the interference to everyone in the room is not their fault, but the fault of the Headphone Manufacturers!
