Most are made with such small gauge wire that after getting rolled, folded, spindled and mutilated they break. I had a pair of Shure buds that were beefier and lasted a long time. I switched away from the buds because they were packing the ear wax deeper. 

Planned obsolescence.

I was wondering the same thing, try not to be rough on them.  Had a couple of pairs fail lately.  I realize they're not meant to last forever.

I could never stand the feeling of those things in my ears for longer than five minutes.

bluetooth sucks.
