I commute and listen to spoken word podcasts, one ear, curbside. I purposely use "wired" ear buds and run the right one under the chin strap, so that if it slips out of my ear, it doesn't drop to the street. I also tuck the cord again so that the microphone is by my mouth . One click of the button on the cord lets me make and answer calls, texts (voice to text/text to voice) send myself reminders, and google stuff.

I don't feel comfortable listening to music while biking in traffic, not even one ear.

In the car...no problem listening to music over the speakers, but definitely not earbuds or headphones.
