When listening to music through headphone on my Inc, there is some slight background noise similar to the faint hiss/hum you get when listening to an old cassette. Its nothing that loud...you can only hear it during quiet parts or silence. It is there even if the volume is zero. When I pause or stop a song, the noise remains for a couple seconds, then goes away.
Is this normal for Droid's or do I have a defective chip/jack? All other mp3 players I've ever owned have had crystal clear audio (silence is dead silent) and I'm trying to get rip of my ipod and only use my Droid, but if this is normal its a deal breaker.
Thanks
