So, all those people on the airplane with headphones on are listening to white noise?

Just for grins, can you post a link to that comment? Even in the gravity-free vacuum of outerspace I imagine a flash-based MP3 player should play...of course, then the question is, can you hear music in a vacuum?
well it actually makes sense...you know that thing that pops in your ear when you are about to life off and about to land??...i guess its when you start to fly and start to land that you should turn it off...the pressure in the plane cabin stableizes while your in the air so thats when its safe to turn it on...i did confirm with my teacher and he said its true...hard drives have some sort of mechanism to stabalize the pressure from outside to in the drive itself...
