A good pair of headphones?

Hey All!
Got myself a Creative Zen Micro (down with the Apple! (Please don't stone me...)) and I have to say that I have never been impressed with Ear Bud headphones. They don't STAY in my ears and when they DO (when I'm not moving) I can't take it for anything longer than an hour.

I am wondering what you folks have seen by way of really comfortable headphones in the $50 or less arena. (Well, I'd LIKE to keep it to the 50 or less. If you've got something that is more (baring the $500 style headphones) I'd like to hear about it.) Something comfortable and isn't like wearing studio phones on your head. (Good sound, not exactly hip for wearing around the office...)

Thanks...

 
Senheiser hd497 $60 @ CircuitCity...best for the price, period. Best non-amped can.

Grade sr60 or sr80..open aired and VERY nice, and you might be able to find a very good deal online. ~$60-80
 
try shure e2c earphones with small foamies... very comfortable... (still earphones though)

i am beta testing the new ultra flex sleeves at the moment but i still find the small foamies more comfortable.
 
Sony Fontopia earbuds are really comfortable. I run with them in every day. I couldn't stand the ones that came with the MuVo2, so instead of dropping a huge load of cash on the Shure earbuds, I picked up the Sonys.

Best non-amped under $100, at least. 😉

I still like SR60s or 80s better, even non-amped.

I like the look of those Sony's. They look like they elimate the reason why the other earbuds hurt.
