+1 on Skullcandy buds, I love mine. One word of advice though, get the slightly more expensive $30 ones that have the inline volume control. Not only can you kill the sound in a hurry without having to yank one out of your head, they have a sturdier design where the wire actually connects to the ear piece. I had the Smokin Buds with no volume control and they came apart after a month of jerking them out of my ears in town.

While the inline volume control is nice, the less expensive Ink'd ones actually have better speakers in them. I've had my Ink'd ones for over a year, maybe 2 I forget, and have had no problems with the wiring coming apart. Only problem I have had is with the rubber ear piece disintegrating. I may have toxic waste ear wax though.

If you get anything other than Skullcandy you are wasting your money in my opinion.
+1 On Skull Candy, the inline volume control is handy and the sound is great. I took it 1 step further and had ear molds made at one of the bike shows, my ear buds pop in and block the wind almost completely and NEVER fall out anymore.
The ear buds are really comfortable in my ears and are a far cry from the days when I used to duct tape two 6x9 Alpine car speakers around my head just to hear the 8 track player bolted onto the handlebars of my Yamaha 650 Maxim. We've come a long way since those good old days.

I have a set of custom molded ear plugs from the www.earplugstore.com. They have some made for riding. Yes they are expensive at $200.00 a set no doubt, but I use for everything from grinding, riding, mowing the lawn, flying on plane and so on. They have speakers in them and sound great, will not fall out, block out most of all wind and so on, only problem is they are expensive. Just wanted to throw this out there.

This is what i use to listen to music..no wires ,, There are 2 models 1 with mp3 built in or like mine that sends the music through bluetooth both phone and music.Right through my sunglasses .Ther Oakley O roker PRO Check them out on there site oakley.com They work for IPOd Or Iphones
They fit comfortably in your ears and block out all wind and they for sure dont fall out.. the ear phones also hold your glasses on tight. all controls are on the glasses. so if you dont like the song just click the controls on the glasses and it will go to the next song..And you can customize the colors of the glasses you want on the web site.. these are the chit... it may sound like i work for oakley but i dont
..
Well, chit... took a short break and popped across the road to best buy and they won't work on my phone.
My Nokia phone requires a pin with 3 bands, as the T-Mobile guy pointed out.
I can listen to music on my phone, or directions from the GPS with them. You can swap out the earphones with what ever you like, but the ones that came with it work pretty well for me.

Lol @ pig ^
They will still work in your phone, you just can't answer calls. I use mine with my phone all the time. It does pause the music, so i know when a call comes in, just have to disconnect if i want to answer.
