Hi Jeff, I have a pair of Sennheiser CX300's, simply the best in ear phones i have ever owned, superbly comfortable and IMO unsurpassed sound reproduction, another 2 people bought a pair after trying mine. If you are in the uk Amazon uk do them a lot cheaper than anywhere else. Hope this helps...
sharethanks euphoric, i have heard only good thongs about the CX300's (from friends and stuff) and i think i'll get... the ones that come with my iPod are to tinny and not loud enough for puplic transport. thanks v much...

By far
Shure SE530PTH
or the cheaper
Etymotic ER-4P
but neither are cheap, the 4p is about $200.00. (Hey the other is around $600.00)
Though after you hear the sound you will never go back and will be recording mp3's in near CD quality as you can hear the differnce plain as day.
Otherwise, and they are not ear buds but small portable folding headphones, the only thing that comes close is Koss Portapros at $40.00. I often us those at home.

The Koss "The Plug" in-ear 'phones are great for the price. Just make sure you're getting a proper seal in your ear, or you'll think they don't have any bass. You might need to make replacement plugs out of foam earplugs or something. Not the best by any stretch, but a good choice if you tend to lose or break earphones or can't spend $100 or more.
Anyone who is playing earphones loud enough to burn them out should think about starting to save up for hearing aids... or invest in the Sony MDR-V900s which will handle several WATTS (not milliwatts) of power and go deaf even faster.
I like both the Shure and the Etymotics (I personally prefer the Ety's though that's probably because I've used them in a studio for so long I've got used to them and my lug 'oles are now Ety shaped rather than vice versa).
Its probably worth noting that these phones need to be well inserted and can be a little uncomfortable at first, but after a while you get used to them.
Also, if you need to take them off and on a lot I'd say get something else as they can be a bit of a hassle.
Shure and the Etymotics
I have ER-P4'S AND 530'S, it does not get much better than these two brands.
