Super down for a rerun. I think we all have some old connections to plan something ahead of time, on an updated game, or even outdated, for all of us to do an event on. I would look forward to that very much

 With my new ipod touch i got a pair of cheap apple earbuds that came in the box, and they suck. They dont stay in my ears.

So are there any cheap (less than $40) earphones that fit well your ears that also have good sound quality?

I want some that fit in my ear or at least isnt as obvious as headphones.

 If you're cheap, that's your problem: ignore the rest of this.

I go with bose for all of my headphone/set/ipod needs

If you really like in-ear headphones, get these for 100 bucks

if you don't mind around-ear, I like these a lot. (they give ridiculously good sound quality, they're very light, and they're very comfortable)

 First of all, I have to contradict Nostie and tell you not to buy Bose headphones. The sound quality does not match the price.

If you're looking for a pair of reliably buds, go for Sennheiser, Shure, Etymotic, Ultimate Ears, and Creative has a decent pair out nowadays, which are pretty much equivalent to the Shure e2c's that I have.

Prices of earbuds have actually gone down a significant amount in the past year. So look up some Shures and Sennheisers. If you can't afford those, the Sony MDR earbuds are actually really cheap now, and the sound quality isn't terrible.

Let me know if you have any questions.

omfg. Amped beat me to it. Bose stands for "BUY OTHER SOUND EQUIPMENT", bose fucking sucks. sorry nostie, but we are telling emer to ignore you.






and im sorry Emer bud good Earbuds(you said INSIDE your ear so I figured earbuds) arent cheap. I got these for christmas with my XM satellite radio, and they are FUCKING AMAZING. like they were extra, and I didnt consider them "a big purchase" but they are sooooo fucking nice. $40 bucks. can you dig it? -[link]-

 NOT TO MENTION THE FOUNDER OF BOSE GRADUATED FROM MIT. I'M GOING THERE.

Anyway, Bose isn't necessarily bad, just overpriced, mostly thanks to all the media hype.

And something I didn't say before, I honestly wouldn't invest less than $100 on a pair of earbuds, assuming you want them to last a long time. The options I gave you are definitely decent, but they all have their flaws.

Now, if your ears aren't that attuned to sound quality (IE, you could bear to use the stock iPod earbuds if they weren't falling out), then do some research and just find the most comfortable pair for your money.
