Here is an update on my usage of the Behringer HPM1000 Multi-Purpose Headphone.  Sadly, it only lasted a couple of years with uncaring use on my part.

After a couple of years of rugged use.  The headphone pads on the ears started to peel and expose the soft dark synthetic fabric material.  It finally had it's last run on my constant tugging and dropping.  After more than 2 years of use every night.  It finally lost it's sound and also does not function as it should on my laptop.

It's a good headphone for the price and acceptable usage life. I'm currently using my Superlux HD 668B as an alternative headphone at home.  See my first look here: http://philgadgames.blogspot.com/2012/12/superlux-hd-668b-first-look.html.  But primarily, I am currently just using my Philips Ear buds, to avoid destroying another headphone.

I'll write a review soon on my cheapest ear buds that is available in the Philippines and it is a tough enough to last more than 5 years.
