The Earbuds are a Miscellaneous item wearable by all classes. They appear as a stylized version of the white earbuds that normally come with the Template:W iPod and iPhone. They are connected to the class via loose cords, and appear to glow in dark areas. When worn, white musical notes are intermittently seen coming from the Earbuds.The musical notes have no associated sound effect.

This item was awarded to players who launched Team Fortress 2 on Mac OS X between June 10, 2010 and June 14, 2010. The offer was later extended to August 16 before coming to an end.[1]
