Why People Buy Noise-Cancelling Earphones Online (Full Transcript)
[00:00:15] Speaker 1: I understand that you have earphones with noise cancellation, so to start with, can you tell me how you got them?
[00:00:22] Speaker 2: I bought my most recent pair online, after searching for some options that seemed reliable and with good ratings.
[00:00:35] Speaker 1: Your ratings were based only on what you saw online or some indication of a friend or relative, some television ad that you may have watched.
[00:00:49] Speaker 2: Actually, it was mainly because of the ratings I saw online. I didn't have any direct indication of friends or relatives, nor did I see any TV ad that influenced my decision.
[00:00:58] Speaker 1: Ok, did you buy them for a special occasion, such as a birthday, a holiday, or did you also buy them to replace an old earphone that you already had?
[00:01:06] Speaker 2: Ok, did you have a specific interest in earphones with noise cancellation at the time, or was that not on your plans?
[00:01:16] Speaker 1: Yes, I really wanted earphones with noise cancellation because I already had the experience and I knew it worked well for me. But in what sense does it work well and why do you need an earphone with noise cancellation? I mainly need it to be able to focus better on my work when I'm at home, where there's always noise from my children and other things happening around me.
