A timely question for me, Matt. We just ordered 10 new Sennheiser HD 201 headsets. We check them out at our iDesk. They get heavy use and last about a year. They cost about $20 each.
I thought I'd start researching headset vending machines to put in our learning commons. They might also sell jump drives and similar small, low cost items. Has anyone put in a vending machine for these sorts of items? If you respond off list I'll compile and share results.

Hi folks, Any recommendations for cheap but durable headphones for use in media labs? We've been using super-cheap Coby and Unitone headphones for several years, but they break quickly. We're willing to spend a little more if it results in fewer headphones chucked in the trash.
