  "account": "Belkin is introducing a new SoundForm lineup, making active noise cancelation (ANC) accessible to more budget-friendly audio products. The fresh lineup includes three items: the SoundForm Isolate Buds priced at $59.99, the SoundForm Dot ANC earbuds at $39.99, and the SoundForm Play ANC headphones at $49.99.\n\nThe SoundForm Isolate Buds and Dot earbuds cater to the everyday listener. The Isolate Buds boast up to 45dB ANC, a secure wing-tip fit, and a battery life of 32 hours. Meanwhile, the Dot ANC earbuds offer ANC at a price point just $5 more than the non-ANC version.\n\nThe SoundForm Play ANC headphones, on the other hand, are tailored for kids. Priced at $49.99, they feature up to 62 hours of battery life, an optional 85dB volume limiter, and Focus Boost soundscapes intended to aid studying and concentration.\n\nBelkin's decision to bring ANC to more affordable audio products suggests that active noise cancelation may no longer be a premium feature reserved for expensive headphones and earbuds. Instead, it appears to be gradually making its way into more accessible price points.",
