I bought some Shure E2c's several months back when Amazon had them for
$49 shipped.

I prefer ear buds over ear cans for their portability.  The E2c's have
excellent sound isolation and good sound.  I frequently use them on
airplanes (even without music) to drown out the noise.  They sound
nice and clear, but don't have booming bass.  Over-ears tend to have
better bass response if that is important to you.

Everybody has different wants and needs, but the E2c's match up pretty
well with mine.
