All MP3 players come with shitty headphones. Get some sennheiser's. You can get these for under 30 dollars.

Sony MDRV-150's. $17 at walmart.

They're the best phones you're going to find for under $100 unless you go with the little earbuds. I hate earbuds though.

Anyway, those go LOOUD if you want, but also sound really good at the lowest possible volume if it's really quiet and you don't need to be blasting shit.

And they come with the big adapter for plugging into studio shit (what they were made for) orrrr a guitar amp so you can play quietly.

the Sennheiser HD201's that panzieman posted a link to are the best you can find for $20. The koss ksc 55 looks a lot like the sony streetsyle ones but sounds better.

if you care about sound quality stay away from the sony V series headphones.

No shit your iPod headphones broke. I just laugh when I see everyone with those white headphones. They are the worst crap conceived, but since that it's such a cool trend to have an iPod, of course everyone will keep them and wear them.

get the sony dj ones. they're not goofy big, but the sound is still sick, super bassy and clear. only 70$ can too.

The Sony Studio Monitor Series Headphones, MDRV150 suck, they break so easy. Also i think everyones ipod earphones break real easy... The sony headphones a level up from ^those^ are really good. Worth the money

the sony MRD-V300's, great headphones, tons of bass, and great sound quality. kinda flimsy though, but if you take good care of them, theyre good to go.

they break very easily though, so watch out (dont just throw them in a bag, put them where they wont get hit, ect...). but i had them and they are nice. mine broke at the round peice that connects the earphone to the part that goes around your head.
