One of the latest bits of audio tech is wearable speakers that hang round necks like a collar. Would you wear one? If these replaced headphones, it would make buses very noisy!

At first I was thinking of the Bluetooth headphones that hand around your neck. Is it something like that? If so, I'd wear them in private, but definitely not in public.

I'm not a fan. Maybe as part of a portable mic set-up for someone doing poresentations or whatever to give their voice extra volume. If it was used for music, there are enough problems getting people to turn it down in public already.

I agree with vhfspeeks, there is already a huge problem with people blasting their music as loud as they can in public. This will only make it worse.

I am a fan of music enthusiasts enjoying themselves as far as they don't become nuisance in the neighbourhood. If one is comfortable with using wearable speakers, then why not. However, be sure that you are not making others around you to be uncomfortable.
