Which of these would be an appropriate replacement heading for paragraph iv? a) remember the golden rule b) why people love their ear buds c) competition in the music industry d) detrimental effects of ear buds on society iv. narcissism: beyond just being distracting and dangerous, ear buds are detrimental and damaging to society as a whole. ear buds work against a community of listeners. everyone is walking all over the neighborhood, plugged into their latest favorite playlist, but no one is talking to anyone. people who are addicted to their ear buds don’t care about other people. they don’t want community and contact with the real world. ear buds also actively destroy live musicians' ability to make a living with their art form. no one wants live music anymore when they can pay less to hear it instantly and privately anytime they want. if we don’t curb our use of ear buds, all our musicians will languish and no new music will be developed.
