Why do people bother wearing headphones if their music is so loud that you can hear it clearly a mile away? Always on the bus/train where other passengers may be trying to read.

1. Hard of hearing
2. They may think we want to hear what they are listening to. To which we look at them and say to ourselves "You have got to be kidding me I remember that song" "Who listen to him/her"?
3. They are trying to block out what happened at home before the got on the train.
4.The do not like the bus/train operaters voice.
5.They just got an ipod,mp3 player etc and they are excited.

Because they want to listen to their music really loud (as do I). They don't do it to be rude. They just like their music. They are also ignorant about headphones. Headphones suck. Earphones are much better. My earphones go into my ears and block out outside noise, making it easier to hear my music. In addition, no matter how loud I turn up the volume, no one but me can hear the music. So I'm happy, and everyone around me is happy.

I do that at work to block out the annoying noises of my co-workers. In this case, I'm GLAD if they can hear it.
Normally I wouldn't be so rude. It's their fault!
Also, I wouldn't want to be out in public and cripple myself like that. I shudder when I see people out running or walking with headphones. How can they be alert to danger that way?

They have it loud because they are inconsiderate and selfish, I wonder how many of these people will grow up with poor hearing

They will be deaf by the time they are 30.

Imagine how loud it would be if there were no headphones.

They're going to go deaf anyway.
Just point at them and laugh hysterically.
Works for me.

they think their music is so good they're doing you a favour by letting you listen to it
