iPod in ear headphones?

My normal ipod headphones finally broke - I've had enough, they're the third pair in the space of a year. Instead of forking out £20 for another pair (I would buy cheap ones but the iPod headphones have such a better quality of sound on them) I was looking at buying the in ear headphones, only £5 more expensive, but from what I've heard they're a lot lot better.

Does anyone have the in ear headphones, and if so, what're they like? Are they comfortable? Do they have good sound quality?

I have some school 10km 'fun (:rolleyes:) run' on tuesday and I was wondering what they'd be like then - as well as for other uses. Cheers.

I find that some and most of the cheaper ones are as good as or better than the ipod ones. Every pair of apple ones i have had broke! And they are alot more comfortable than the apple ones aswell.

soz but i dnt use headphones as a sex toy :(

and thanks everyone, still very undecided though haha.

You can get the same kind of ones but a lot cheaper. Apple charge well too much for their products, dont assume cos they are apple they are better. ;) Mine are Phillips or JVC or summin and they are just as good :)

I've heard good reviews about them. Might get them instead - on amazon, 561 reviews, averaging 3.5/5 stars!

yeah i was thinking about them aswell. loads of my friends have em, so im buying em tomorrow when i go town.

I love in-ear earphones, the sony MDR-EX90 are fabulous. It's only a shame iPods have such problems with sound distribution, they don't get used to their full potential :(

Logik do a really good pair of headphones. Good bass and comfy :) Very strong too, which is a bonus ;) I keep running mine over with my chair :P A good alternative you might want to think about if you, for whatever reason, don't want in-ear headphones :P

Only good ones I can find :(

Sorry for the bump, but after sampling these in the apple store yesterday, I have come to the conclusion that they are amazing. Their sound quality, along with the background noise almost cut out completelely (remember I was in the apple store so it was very noisy) make them superb.

£45 in the apple store, £23 altogether on amazon haha.
