I fell asleep halfway through, and then the dick heads who live below me woke me up at 4am by running around and shouting. I'm really starting to fucking hate them. :/

You have got to love Uni living. :(

Sound quality is my top priority right now. Apple's earbuds have spoiled me. So I guess the Sony ones would be my best bet?

Why not just get new apple earbuds then?

Ive got a few of them laying around the house, but all have 1 problem or another, but the sound quality was always good when they were new.

All the different prices make me think there are differences in sound quality. It confuses meeee

EDIT: Oh I was looking at the wrong page. Looks like I am getting Apple earbuds then :3

Earbuds?  :o don't get what's so great about them, whatever I do they don't stay in my damn ear!!  >:( Perhaps my ears are just weirdly shaped I'll probably never know, headphones 4 life! ;D

Are you deaf as well as blind, woman? I'm not a carpet to walk over and I
distinctly heard myself speak. If I pinch your bottom, you can slap my face, but until I do, I expect a civil word for a civil word!

Earbuds are nice cuz they are compact. They fit in your pocket. Also, they dont bounce around when I am jogging or at the gym. I guess whether or not they fall out is dependant on the persons ear. For example, one type wont fall out even if I pull them, the other type fall out when I am just walking.
I only use earphones at the computer tho... but that is mostly for the mic.

Either way, the main difference is bulk.

I can't use them when I sleep, since they ain't inear, but they're awesome for school / other shiet :'D
Better than those large headsets, can't put them in my pocket ;'D

There's blood on my hands, but the killers not my enemy. It's all for the sake of love. It's all for you.

Ew.  Skullcandy are just as effective with regards to quality as either the Sony or Apple earbuds, but the huge difference that sets Skullcandy apart is the comfort!  Their earbuds come with 2-3 different sizes of rubber sleeves, so you can actually adjust them to fit your ear most comfortably/effectively.  I have the Apple earbuds, and I've had Sony in the past... I'd use my Skullcandy over them anyday... for workouts.  Otherwise, if I'm intent on using earbuds, I use my Etymotic Research set.  They have amazing quality, but they aren't cheap.  I much prefer my studio headphones over earbuds, tbh.  They were also not cheap, tho.

I have yet to see an in-ear from any reasonable manufacturer that doesnt.
Honestly tho, if in-ears work for you, then its prolly the way to go, but or me, even after trying all variations of fits, none will stay put. I just cant use them. Thats to say nothing of the sound quality, some are really good. Its just that personally, they do not work for me.

I was about to get the Skullcandy Ink'd buds (they were the only ones under $10) but then I looked up some reviews and all of them said they have crap durability.
I'm pretty rough with my earbuds. The Apple ones I had before lasted about a year in perfect condition, and they were owned by my mother for 2 years before that.

I've had them for over 1.5 years, and only used them for workouts... I'd say that's effectively indicative of durability.  ;)

+1 to the pet thing. If I can't hug it, do not want.
