People who don't have wireless headphones yet, why are you living in 2015?
We want to reduce our phone risk surface. Bluetooth is a serious security risk
We want to be able to use the same headset on our computers and our phones
We wanted easily be able to replace our headset if it breaks anywhere in the world
We don't want to have to charge yet another thing in our daily carry bag
We want to keep everything simple so it just works always
Wired audio is lower latency, which is better when talking to people
Wired audio has higher quality! (default bluetooth microphone / headset audio is terrible...)
Damn I must have missed all those news articles about people hacking phones because the users were listening to music wirelessly.

Holy shit, i knew it was bad but not that bad
Why not let ppl chose what they want to use?
Personally I use both, wireless and wired headphones/speakers. Sometimes Bluetooth is better, sometimes the headphone-jack is more convenient.
Is this so difficult to understand?
You know how convenient it is to just have some wired headphones lying around in the car in case I need them for some reason? (Like if I forgot my wireless ones for the gym).
I can't do that with wireless headphones, the battery will passively run dry.
