Oh we will. Because the people listening the most to music are musician, and they entire stack is linked by jacks. So they will carry adapters everywhere, one for thunderbolt, one for usb-c, and hate it.

I know I will, because I won't buy a new headphone in the next 2 hears, mine being very expensive.

That doesn't mean I think it's a bad move. The thunderbolt migration was a good move. Removing the floppy and the DVD player is a good move. And removing the jack it probably one.

I actually look forward for the day where my phone, laptop and flatscreen only have USB-C port as input and ouput.

But it will be annoying for a while, and way more than 2 years.

Espacially since wireless headphones are a f*ing pain to use.
