Deadmau5 & Sol Republic Come Out with “Cat Headphones” to Help The ASPCA

Washington DC – Deadmau5 has teamed up with premium headphone earbud company, SOL Republic, along with his cat Professor Meowingtons to create a line of headphones of cats. Yes, that’s right, for cats. The headphones are miniature versions of the headphones a human would use to listen to music, they’ve even created a comical cliché informercial to promote the headphones. You may be asking why create small headphones that a cat may never even use that cost $999.00 USD? Well the answer is simple, Deadmau5 is backing these headphones to help the ASPCA, an organization that helps out abused animals. The headphones are selling at a pretty hefty price but, all of the proceeds are being sent to the ASPCA. If you can afford them, your money is going towards a great cause.

Here are some features and functions the headphones have:

  • Dog isolating technology
  • I4 Sound Engines delivering deep bass and high clarity
  • Detachable sound engines
  • Durable headband
  • Three-button remote and ClearTalk™ microphone
  • Comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and a branded cat headphone display stand.

Apple Launches Their “Genius” Commercials

Washington DC – You may have noticed yesterday, like I did, that during the commercial breaks of the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics, an event with over 1 Billion people tuned in, Apple aired a new commercial personality for the Mac computer. This new personality is the “Apple Genius”, what they call staff at Apple stores who help customers learn how to use their macs. The first commercial I saw was the airline one called “Mayday (Shown Below)” where the Apple Genius helps a man in desperate need with his iMovie anniversary video, I found it pretty creative — like the other commercials as well.

Apple, a company making more than $60 Billion a year, has an amazing marketing team that pushes out memorable commercials to promote their products and the Apple Genius guy is no exception. Down below are the latest 3 commercials featuring the Apple guy, personally I enjoy the Labor Day one.
