I just bought a $25 pair of earbuds, and I feel they are worse than the $10 Skullcandy earbuds I had before, although they suffered from noise from rubbing against clothing. My old Skullcandys also had a lifespan of about 6 months before they either fell apart or started buzzing.
As a result, I'm now looking for a very good pair of earbuds to replace them. I'm willing to pay up to $50, maybe $60 if they're really good. Any suggestions?
Also, do you prefer earbuds or full headphones?
I prefer earbuds because of how portable they are. You can't exactly slip a full pair of headphones into your pocket next to your iPod.

On a related note, do you guys think "burn-in" has an effect on sound quality? Burn-in is basically the idea that, after a couple hundred hours of constant noise, headphones will be at their best performance. Some people even go so far as to leave music playing through a new pair of headphones for 100-200 hours before listening to them.
Koss Porta Pro.
Full 'eadphones.
Logitech's where it's at.
Bought $4 headphones not too long ago. Better quality than the $50 ones my brother has. Y'all getting ripped off.
I got some really nice over the ear headphones for Christmas and I love 'em.
Hey mister, I like headphones.

Philips Specked.
The sound is above average, though not amazing. However, these things are durable as fuck, with some pretty good bass response. They're what I use.
For my zune

For gaming. Not exactly the same headset but very similar. Is red but doesn't have that mesh stuff.
