> something with an industrial or similar piercing...

Although Baby Boomers are horrified by the style, it is acceptable these days to have large 'plugs' worn in the ears lobes with them being nothing more than valueless plastic.

If you could have built in headphones then there would be a good reason to stretch one's ears and add industrial barbells.

The stretched ears people that are around today will be needing hearing aids one day. This might be decades away, and they might not present a huge market, however, there is plenty of time to develop some hearing aids just for them.
