I've tried those and found them incredibly distracting. I can't fall asleep with them on. I suspect they would work just fine to keeping the tinnitus under control, however.
For something similar but seemingly nutty, try the podcast ‘Northwoods Baseball’. It consists entirely of ‘broadcasts’ of baseball games in a fake baseball league. Sounds crazy, but works for me! Each ‘game’ lasts about 2.5 hours.
