Need help....I am looking for ear phones for my computer that won't break past four months
and currently, I am using a pair a friend gave me that I believe was designed by the Marquis De Sade ( these things have bendable plastic clips that I GUESS are supposed to fit over your ears...but they hurt like a motherfucker ) seriously, right now I want to beat the living crap out of the individual that designed these things...people, they REALLY HURT, and are quite difficult to get over your ears.

I'm talking about your run-of-the-mill ear phones for listening to music while browsing ( and I have purchased Sony and various other brand names in the past ) Is there some rule that these things have a life span of four months or less? What can you recommend?

I just took off these demonic things, and am without music at the moment.

1. I have a pair of Memorex ear buds that I use. I've had them for
about 3 or 4 years, and they are still working just fine.

3. I'll check out Memorex...I don't think I purchased anything from them yet
but my ear buds have ended up crackling and just dying out completely ( I've gone through countless pairs these past two years ). I'll give them a shot-thanks :D

at K-Mart for $15.00 last year.

Cyber Acoustics. They even have padded ear thingy's. :P
