Next time you go to the store, buy these and compare them to your $100+ headphones. You won't be able to hear the difference.

Nope, my $100 ones are better. =p

If I was sure that a good pair of headphones would survive many years of use then I'd be more inclined to invest. When I actually have money that is.

The headphones I have now would retail for about $60 when they were originally purchased and that was 3 years ago.

Just recently I have noticed that there is a kink in the cable near the USB connection - when I touch it or bend it the headphones crap out.
So my headphones are sadly on their way out - sooner or later that small breakage in the cord will get worse. In fact that's how I lost my old headphones that I had for years - aww man they were great too.

and yeah I can agree that one might not want to spend *too* much money on headphones, but at the same time I always fall back to my motto with this sort of thing.

If you buy junk, you get junk

Over-ears eventually start to hurt my ears, and get uncomfortable. I'd go ear buds most of the time, unless I'm trying to A) block out sound or B) playing something loud I don't want anyone else to here. And no, nothing bad.

Good ol' Apple ear buds. They're falling apart at an incredible rate though.

I got one with my crappy $40 4 gig mp3 player, and my psp, and both earbuds have worked fine. My in-ears broke though (the pad fell out when I was running. And I hate one-ear listening).

I correct myself and say whatever is lying around. As long as it isn't the pair I've had since kindergarten; they're way blown on the treble. All is here is bass basically. *Boom BOOOM boom*

I got meself some HP earbuds. They have a volume adjust where the two wires become one, so I don't have to keep looking down at mah MP3.
