I used an iPhone to listen to music, no problems, just don't crank up the volume. If you can hear the rest of the world then you will be ok.

Pererin - I've also found only plugging in one ear also works when I'm out walking. I learned a few years ago walking the dog that blocking out the world wasnt a great idea... so as you say, keep it down or try the one ear approach :D
