New Earphones for IPOD, any suggestions?

So the earphones that came with my IPOD seem to be blown out..Anyways does anyone have anny suggestions for some good, cheap earphones? The most I would like to spend is $40 which is the same price for new headphones from the apple site but I am sure there are some better ones but I am not that earphone savvy, so any suggestions???
Thnks in advance

Higher then 40 dollars but sounding like a Million bucks

Shure E2C minimum is around 80 some dollars.

They're not the most discrete but the fit is quite comfortable and they actually stay in place ( comes with various size of fit sleeves foam or silicone )

Bass definition is also very good.

And they also block most outside noise so they are the equivalent of an earplugs/earbuds hybrid. You will be able to listen to things at a much lower volume and hear the music just fine and hear no one around you.

Use at work all the time ... almost too effective because then I don't hear anyone ...

If you got 20 bucks :P
But it will require a little bit of handy work

consider Sennheiser PX200. i just bought some for $40 (shipping included) and they sound great. they are closed, over the ear, have cushions which make an good seal, have a decent size cord, and are collapsable.

my friend has some PX100 which are the open design and was considering getting those, and i'm glad i didn't because the bass is overemphasized in the PX100. in the PX200 the bass sounds punchier, the mids are great, the highs are good. a good deal and better sounding than some more expensive models.


EDIT

earphones as in-ear? crap. the ones i suggested are head phones but i'd consider them anyway.

i just recently bought a pair of Sennheiser HD-201's from djmart.com.. only 15 bucks. not too shabby for the price, and perfect for an ipod.

Save up your money! Nothing comes even close to Bang & Olufsen's earphones. They have the best sound quality in the world, and best design.

Imagine that you could live your life knowing it could not be better and never feeling that you would rather be doing something else, be somewhere else, or be someone else. Now consider this, some people actually live that way and so could you. Contemplate this, what if 90% of the problems you encountered in your life were mere illusion and only existed in your mind? In your everyday life whenever something annoys you, stresses you, makes you mad or makes you sad, consider if that something really matters. Will you even remember how you felt in 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year, or what about in 10 years? So when the people you work for pressure you and fail to understand you does it really matter? And when they call you on the phone screaming and yelling does it matter? And should you really allow that to influence your life? It's all about choices.
