Its lucky I haven't been brought up like this.
I was around rich kids and a very expensive school - I remember them bragging about their iPod and iPhones back then.
Now I guess trend has changed and its the beats.
 
If I heard it nowadays I would just laugh - I really would just laugh at them!

its only the majority of the students, theirs some who actually have some headphone knowledge and know beats arent worth the pricetag and hype, yeah but the ipod and iphone are not very overpriced for the quality of the product they provide(except when it comes down to the regular nano and shuffle currently out)

Kids got to start soomewhere and if the have Beats that a lot better then what I started which were some $10 Dollar crappy clip on ones I had. Now years later I am using custom made earphones and I can appreciate them a lot more.

Beats are horrible to start with. I spend my money very wisely and buying Beats is the opposite of that. The Beats Studio is worth no more than $100 SQ/durability-wise.

Kids have no money they use their parents. I would easily say beats are better then stock earphones especially Ipod ones.

Even when I was young and my parents were going to buy me something, I always did my research and always chose whatever was the best bang-for-your-buck. I guess some people understand the value of money a lot more than spoiled, ignorant kids.
 
Anything is better than stock earphones. It still doesn't make the beats worth it. I'd rather buy the more durable V-Moda Crossfade LP1's, instead of following the crowd and wasting money on Beats.
There are lots of headphones under $150 that are better than $300 beats.

Maybe Beats know how to market their products better.

I would never pay $100 for solos
 
And you say teens...I've seen more 20-30yr olds wearing beats in Paris, than anything...

I love this track with ZO2 + Q40, the bass + melody together 

 
Recorded it using my custom foobar2000 Dolby Headphone config

Yea I'm a big fan of Wasted Penguinz and yea this kind of style, "uplifting hardstyle" is just getting more and more common among many producers. I also know a hugeload of newcomers and this more melodic/uplifting style is very common among these. Still Wasted Penguinz are by far best at bringing out very euphoric sounding tracks IMO. Can't wait for their unreleased tracks, those are amazing, I'm waiting for "I Miss You" and "Your Moment" and Melancholia 2 & Confined Thoughts (I haven't heard those 2 but they were very satisfied with them so if they like em I know I will too) ^^
