The Shiori Experience manga is, as you would expect from a Japanese interpretation of Jimi Hendrix, really strange. A lot of fun, though.

We've got 3 sets of the wired predecessor to the SONY MDR Noise Cancelling Headphones, ran onto a liquidation. They work quite well, but don't completely cover your ears which can allow some sound leakage. That may or may not be an issue for some folks, they do dramatically reduce background noise and sound pretty darn good on music.

JimiHen (the Japan-style abbreviation of the full title, IIRC it's something to the effect of Jimi=plain, Hen-->hentai-->strange) is a very fun manga, very broad appeal. The noise-cancelling aspect to this cross-promotion seems like a very creative marketing project, not a bad idea for targeting potential music lovers.
