Default Zune Premiuim Headphones - The Nylon Cord
Sorry is already posted***********

Does anyone else hate the nylon around the cord of the earbuds?. I do admit it looks nice and makes the headphones stand out but it becomes so hard to manage and make the cord feel hard and dry after a while. Are there any tricks to keep it in good shape without trying to cut it off (tried once, cut through the cord lol)

replys appreciated.

you can always rub mineral oil on it to keep them from drying up, and it is better to have the nylon, it keeps the cords from breakage.

Yep.
I like the fact that the cords don't break.

I've never thought of that, thanks for the idea. How often should you do this?

I love the nylon cord itself, but I HATE the sound that resonates through the buds when the nylon rubs on anything while listening.
