> Have you ever worn over-the-ear headphones for 10 hours? It's uncomfortable.

I can barely wear 'phones for 10 minutes. Because it physically hurts.

I have worn 'phones for hours on end a decade or so ago (my weapons of choice were K271s before my ear issues flared up and made that a non-option). They could get pretty hot around the ears, but they were very comfortable.

There are cans and buds with good isolation (or noise-cancelling).
