Virgin America Now Selling Headsets

HotelChatter editor Juliana just bought herself a Virgin America ticket and got an email confirmation back from the carrier with a curious note:

We have new custom-designed Virgin America headsets available for $2 in three hot colors. (We are no longer giving away disposable headsets.)

Get better sound quality and plug into RED where you can watch dozens of movies, or select from on-demand shows like HBO's Entourage. You can also tune in to thousands of MP3s and our music video library.

Honestly we don't have much on a opinion on this because we'd guess about 95 percent of Virgin's target demo already packs a headset--or two--when traveling. And if everyone else is gonna rake in ancillary revenues without passenger revolts, hey, why not?
