Are there any good earbuds out there that will last a while and not break down in like a month for the iPhone or iPod?
Got a tip for us?

I love my Sennheiser In-Ear. In-Ear sure isn't everyones kinda-thing, but I find it great to listen to music or whatever, without trying to be louder than my neighbour (in trains etc.) and afterall hurt my ears.
Don't know anymore what they are called, but they cost around 70 back when I bought them in Finland. Amazon sure should have them cheaper.

The Shure SE530 or any of the other SE line. But what are you doing that causes headphones to break so easily.
I've gone thru several corded headsets usually I break them with some stupid accident. The cords get yanked or pulled on when they catch on something some wire inside breaks. Now I've gone to BT stereo headset. No more cords.
I listen mostly to audio podcasts that works fine for me. I have a original iPhone a got a Sony BT dongle for the iPod with a Motorola S9 headset. Works great!
Holy crap I can vouch on this subject. Long story semi-short, I've been using my headphones since July '08 and last week I completely forgot them inside my khaki cargo shorts and on the opposite pocket I left an ink pen (yeah I know). I was so distracted trying to get the ink off (pocket with pen) I put it through another wash and drying cycle (so that's 2 wash cycles and 2 drying heat cycles). Well what do you know these damn things work as if nothing had ever happened.
Have you used the V-Moda Vibe earphones? I've had them and they broke once in a year, but their warranty is for a year so they replaced it automatically. I've used the replacement pair for almost a year now (it's like 9 month passed the warranty) and it's still working fine.
