    My cat decited to eat my ipod earbuds for dinner tonight so I have to buy a new pair. I was not really crazy on how they fit my ear anyways. So I was wondering if anybody could tell me the best ones I could buy for my money? I was pricing them and seen they rang from $5 to $90. Is there really that much of a difference between them?

    Head phones have different sound quality. So the $5 are prablably not good quality and the $90 could be wirelless. I personally like the factory headphones that came with the iPod. Do you want to know some good quality headphones? If so than what is your price range

    At $20 you'll really have to shop around yourself. That price range it's going to be hard to find something of quality.

    I'll try and find the model # but I have a pair of sony earbuds that sound GREAT and are COMFORTABLE as hell!!!!!!

    They run around 30-50 dollars a set, but well worth it.

    I absolutely hated the ones that came with my IPOD. They made my ears hurt after about a half hour.

    The sony's have a soft thin rubberish piece that goes in your ear, kinda form fits.....feels so comfortable, it doesn't even feel like ur wearing headphones. I was VERY happy with my purchase.

    very similiar to these. I think these run about 50 bucks. most importantly is the style of the earbud. This style, for me, is EXTREMELY comfortable. I bought my pair about 3 years ago so I'm pretty sure my model isn't available anymore.

    Give Sony earbuds a listen at a store. I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

    I was going to recommend the exact same earbuds, so you saved me the trouble =)

    Excellent, crisp sound & very bassy. Perfect for those who enjoy good quality music.

    The ones you pictures certainly ARE still available, as I recommended them to a friend to purchase just the other day.

    Thanks everybody for your help I will have to give them a try I think these are the ones here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...1566/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-8079331-6789569?ie=UTF8 not a bad price. I had the same problem with the OEM earbuds they hurt my ears and would not stay in. I thought they sounded good though a lot brtter than my dollar store backup ones that I am using now. when I get them I will let everybody know what I think.

    Those type of headphones tend to not fit in my ears very well. I could possibly be putting them in wrong too though :/
