It's bad enough during the winter when i wear a light layer of wool over my ears to stay warm. I can't imagine having iPods covering my ears and pouring in Music which might cover up something i really needed to hear; from the whisper of a passing cyclist, to a new noise coming from my bike, to a car coming down the street.
You're preachin' to the choir on that one. I'm not one for music in my ears though anyway, so it's not a sacrifice for me. Even putting aside the hazards, I like hearing the world around me when I ride: birds, insects, laughing kids, etc.
