In terms of comfort, these are right up there with the best of them.

I recently bought a new iPod Touch and wanted to get some new headphone to go with it because I think the ones that come as standard are cheap, rubbish, leak a lot and give off a poor sound.
The problem when looking for new headphones, however, is that most of them are the in ear ones that have the rubber bit on the end that is supposed to sit in your ear. Personally I've tried these and found that they're not comfortable and the rubber bit on the end can be easily lost.

The one bad thing that I have heard about these is their lifespan. I have read numerous reviews which basically say that within a year these had broken. While this is frustrating and shouldn't be the case, I personally am happy to buy a new pair every year if they are worth it. The fact is that these are only about £10 so means its not going to break the bank if you want another pair.
Another complaint I've heard is that the cord is too short and wear's away quickly. I have had my headphones for about 2 months and use them most days. I've found the cord length to be fine and has not worn away at all.
I have no complaints about these. They are much better than any of the standard earphones I've been given and don't cost much at all. My advice is to go out and buy a pair.
Advantages: good sound quality and very cheap Disadvantages: will not last forever
The Sony MDRED21LP which i am still using is one of the cheapest headphones you can get now our days with such high quality best in-ear sounds it provides. When am using the Sony MDRED21LP, the bass and tweeters i get in my ears are so good that it can be compared to being in an underground club and dancing when you feel already tipsy. You can imagine what i mean. The stereo type music is so sift that you can hear every instrument that was used in ... ...used. If you are a music fan, this is what you will need to end your search for headphones.
The sound changes to the better as more as you push the headphones deep into the ears. The hydrid design of the headphones makes it sits in your ears. With the music in your ears, you can still talk to people outside by just turning down the volume a little and you can converse while listening to music instead of having taken them out and stop the music. ...

Advantages: Great Sound Quality, A Lot More Bass! Disadvantages: Uncomfotable after a while!
...made to the usual high Sony standard!
Its totaly as personal decision on weather you should get them, it depends on when you listen to your music and for how long. They have tried to make them comfortable by making them spongy but because everybodys ear are different they dont fit very well.
Don't pay anymore than about £10 - £13 and get them from an online shop i.e. the usual suspects eBay and Amazon. ...
