Apple has unveiled a new plan to remove the headphone jacks from their devices, such as the iPhone, and force people to either pay an expensive amount of money to buy a headphone jack to lightning adapter, or buy headphones that use a lightning cable. This will force anyone who buys new iPhones to pay a lot of money to just listen to music! This is unfair and reveals that Apple is one money-hungry company! Sign this petition if you feel that this is an unfair movement!

I refuse to let my favorite pair of wired headphones become useless relics just because of corporate greed. Let us push this total over the two hundred fifty mark so our frustration becomes impossible for them to ignore.

I have been reading your messages about how much this hidden cost will hurt our wallets. It is clear that we are all tired of being forced to buy expensive adapters just to use the headphones we already own.

This change affects not just my headphones, but makes it impossible for me to play music in my car or on my home stereo. I am faced with the option of opting for a different brand of phone, or replacing all the devices one which I listen to podcasts and music. What kind of a bonehead move is it to remove the headphone jack? Serves no purpose other than to feed your greed. It was bad enough you switched to a the firewire and I had to buy new chargers and an adapter for all my devices like speakers, my home stereo system, etc.

If they do this, then my Family, all of which have iPhone 6s (4 of them), will never buy another iPhone again. We will take the loss on the iTunes, Apps, etc we have purchased over the years. It's a real shame as we have been using the iPhone since the beginning.

I love my iPhone 6+, but if Apple decide to take away a headphone socket, they can say goodbye to me as a customer.

I think this would be a bad decision and doesn't make much sense logistically. If 99% of these people listen to music on their iPhones, then taking this port away would just lead to inconvenience. Who really wants to have to plug in an adapter whenever they want to listen to music? I certainly wouldn't.

Ditching the headphone jack would lower the iPhone’s functionality and consequently, its profitability.

I need a 3.5 mm jack socket on my iPhone! I have headphones that are more valuable to me than my iPhone. Don't force me to choose!!
