With the release today of Apple's "smallest iPod Shuffle ever," the pioneering tech bellwether continues to wean us off its charismatic founder, Steve Jobs. Until recently, the new Shuffle would have been unveiled as an appetizer during a bigger media banquet - one of those wonderful little trinkets that Jobs would show off at the start of, say, a Macworld conference...

...Portnuff acknowledges that most iPod and MP3 users don't keep their devices at maximum volume - only about 7% to 24% listen at risky levels. But because most of us can, and are, spending more time listening to music through headphones, there is a real risk of hearing loss for anyone who plugs in.
