And who knows? Maybe there really is some truth to the idea that you can get royally crunked on the sounds from your earbuds. But as any loyal reader of the Mountain Xpress knows, we're hardly ones to shy away from being ridiculous. Sure, the whole thing sounds completely ridiculous. Welcome to the reefer madness of the iPod age. (Never mind the fact that more people seem to be talking about i-Dosing than actually doing it.) And, of course, concerned parents and law enforcement are already demonizing it as the new gateway drug into, well, real drugs. Videos of headphone-wearing kids supposedly under the influence of an i-Dose - giggling wildly, falling off of couches, breaking down into sobs - have become a hit on YouTube. They call it i-Dosing: a "digital drug" that people claim gets you high solely off the sounds on an MP3. It'd be hard not to, with the media in such a tizzy over it.
