[Cube] (no subject)

Yes but probably if they get exposed to sunlight much. I have my  
originals which are still working and no signs of crumbling but had  
little direct exposure to sunlight. O the other hand, in another south  
facing room with plenty of sun, a pair of headphones suffered from  
being in the sun for some of the day when not in use and their plastic  
foam dust screens crumbled completely. The crumbling only happened  
where the foam was exposed to the light and not where is was covered.

Photochemical radical chain reactions, they're a pain in the whatsits.
