Query: select a different adapter

When the adapter arrived, it worked perfect and sounded great. I really liked the retractable cord feature to make it easy to store.However, I have treated it gently and the plastic pieces still fell apart making it impossible to secure the connection to my iPod. I wish I had purchased a different brand or a different adapter (3.5mm on either end) to avoid this disappointment as my cord that has been used a dozen times is now worthless.
