technology Do you use earbuds more in one ear or both?

[EpicEnergy 22,074]

I prefer using it in both ears to get the full experience, but recently I got an MP3 player that I bring to work and they only let me use it in one ear for safety reasons, so I've started using earbuds in only one ear.

Using 1 ear gives me an ear ache and makes me crazy. Most of my jobs require hearing protection anyway.

I like to fall asleep listening to stuff so if I can't get one side comfortable I will occasionally go for only one bud but otherwise always two or none.

I'll use both if I'm at home or somewhere by myself. For safety purposes, I'll only use one if I'm moving around or doing something.

When one earbud goes out, I don't mind listening with just one until I get a new pair. Normally though, I really do need two headphones to truly immerse myself in a good song.

I’d rather use both ears, unless I’m doing sound tests that is

I actually don't use earbuds, I'm old-fashioned that way.

i only use earbuds when i go to work by bike @EpicEnergy and then i use both because hearing music on just 1 ear is annoying lol
at home i don't use earbuds and big headphones i don't use at all because i get a headache from them

Now that I have AirPods I have to use both or they won’t connect properly

both, for sure. Outside noises distract me from the music if i only have one earbud in

Trying to listen to music with from only one earbud would make me nuts pretty quick.

I don't use earbuds much (I prefer headphones), but when I do, I always use them in both ears. Hearing music in only one ear feels really uncomfortable.

In both earbuds.  Let that crisp music take away boring sounds in the real world  

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I used to use a single earphone; the really cheap kinds they don't even make anymore. When I was little, that was what I had to go with my music player. But now I always use earbuds in both ears because it sounds too weird afterward if I only put them in one ear.
