The companies, including Amazon.com, Sony, Microsoft and Best Buy, have begun to create alternatives to the infuriating plastic “clamshell” packages and cruelly complex twist ties that make products like electronics and toys almost impossible for mere mortals to open without power tools.

Actually.. those headphones are packaged in that annoying ass plastic that developes horribly sharp edges if torn. Nothing like having something decide it wants to be incredibly sharp when you've got your hands all over it. |

I always thought I was dumb for not knowing the practical way to open those packages, like there was some tool I was supposed to have but didn't. Glad to see they're going away. |

Oh come on people, its called a pocket knife. Ever heard of those little things? Poke the end into one of the corners of the "clamshell" packaging and drag. Done right, it slices open like butter. |
