Review: I can't hear you--I have my Moonrocks on. And, no, I won't take them off.

I have accidentally become an amateur expert on earphones/buds. Yep, if you lose enough of them, it is easy to figure out what works and what doesn't. BTW, this review may look a lot like my review of the Moshi Dulcia, which I reviewed at the same time.Compatibility: Works on my mp3 player, Kindle Fire, Kindle Fire HD, and computer. Yeah, I know they are being pushed for the KFire, but they can also be used elsewhere just fine.Comfort: These are very comfortable. They come with three sizes of eartips, so you can fit your ears. They fit in my ears with no teardrop shape hanging out.Sound quality: Sound quality for both speech and music is excellent. Naturally, they are much better than the free ones (e.g., on airplanes), but they also seem to reproduce the music better than others that I have paid real money for ($20-$40).The sound quality of a quick recording was good, but it picked up a lot of noise from rubbing on my shirt. I don't record much, so all I can say is that it works.Blocking out sound: Ambient sounds are well blocked. For example, I can hear my typing when the music has quiet or silent spots, but otherwise I don't notice it unless I really listen.  I listened to a podcast while shredding paper in my office shredder and I could hear everything that was said.Wires: The length from tip of plug to earphones is about 50". This is a good length for something in your shirt pocket or jeans pocket, since there is not a lot of extra.Accessories: Besides the 3 sizes of earpads, this comes with a really convenient case. You put the buds in the case and wind the cord around and inside the case. I can't explain it well-just know that you will wonder why they don't all come this way.Likeliness to last: The cord, earbuds, etc., seem to be well built and pretty much typical for this quality/price of earbuds, so they should last well. However, the carrying case will make a huge difference, so these should last a long time.Or, until I lose them.
