  1. Okay, maybe I can live without it, but it makes my daily commute much more bearable. Also, I’ve tried and hated audiobooks, so there is no competition factor for me

  2. I like it (and use it) more than I thought I would, but it’s not a deal-breaker for me if it’s not there.

    (Poll must be closed.)

  3. I voted “Take it or leave it” but so far, other than an a short experiment, it has been “leave it” all the way. Though, I suppose, there might be a time when I use it, however unlikely.
