Twenty-nine percent of headphones priced $100 or more were connected to a tablet this year, nearly triple the attachment rate from 2011, according to The NPD Group. "Though many consumers are gravitating towards more expensive, premium headphones for better quality sound, the emphasis on design and celebrity endorsement have also contributed to them being viewed as fashion accessories."

The Beats go on, so to speak. :)
