I bought a pair of Beats Studio Pros a week before my trip to Japan in November. The price was too good to pass up. The ANC failed almost immediately; it was probably a manufacturing defect with the microphone on the left ear. Any time I moved my jaw the sound in the left ear crackled annoyingly. This devolved into a loud whooshing noise. Of course, getting warranty service while in Japan would've been a pain in the butt... When I got back to the states, I brought them to the Genius bar. After I explained the failure mode, they didn't even test them. They sent them to the depot, and I got them back in a week as good as new. That's the maddening thing with genius bars: you're never quite sure if you'll get "the good one." I've been very lucky with Apple support over twenty-odd years; I've never gotten the runaround with them (except on Titanium G4 hinges and they gave everyone grief).

The podcast is very entertaining as it is, I have no notes :)
