Wow my really expensive Altec Lansing headphones have did this since the day I bought them. I never knew it was a widespread problem. I do roll my headphones up a lot so I imagine that it has caused the static and loss of power to the left or right side. How is this such a widespread problem? It seems like manufacturers would have noticed it and fixed it by now.

Except mine do it at the volume control, not at the actual plug. I guess I'm fucked if it's doing it in the actual volume controller.
