I use the JVC "marshmallow" earbuds. They're easily available for under $20, and they work great. At 95 mph on the autobahn with my bigshots, they actually block out noise and deliver good sound. They squish like ear plugs and go in the ear and don't bother me with the 3/4 helmet.

i used my ipod for 1800 miles to Sturgis and back to WI. i bought "Skull Candy ear buds, come with (3) different ear rubbers and a volume control on the cord. It worked great, now have radio fixed.

I use mine all the time. I hate having the wind whistling in my ears and the music is much nicer.

As others have mentioned, I got the skull candy in ear buds... I have v and h pipes, and dont often ride with a windshield. I dont wear a helmet most of the time except for long trips, and they stay in no problem...
With my iphone, they are plenty loud, I actually leave the volume down a hair from max, run the wire down the back under my shirt, and goes right into my pocket...

No, you cannot control volume or change songs, but I do NOT WANT the ability to do these things while riding... I have a number of playlists depending on my mood, so no need to skip songs or anything like that...
