I want to use my iPod while riding, but am sure which headphones or buds will be comfortable, yet stay in place even if I hit a few bumps. Anyone have any recommendations?

What headphones / buds do you wear while riding?

Sony MDR-EX71s
iTunes search function is excellent. It has a very easy to use GUI as well. iPod has great accessories that are available, and a plethora of them at that. Also, I got a student discount.stosh said:

shure e2s
I use stock IPOD headphones. They stay put most of the time.
But I'm guessing that you aren't have good luck with them.
I tried sony md50(not sure if that's right) they stayed put completely but the cord sucked (it was rubbery and would stick to my neck. And for me it was almost too tight of a fit to the point that I swear it messed with my balance a little bit.

Skullcandy Skullcrushers... the Ti's are sweet too.

Phiilips ear buds, come with a great ear hook to keep them in place even with Bumps and crashes!!!
I like the Rio ones that came with my old mp3 player, they kind of wrap up uver your ear and stay in place very well. They are also black, so unlike white headphones they look a little cleaner after your ride. Just keep the volume low.
I have these:

Gadget story, kinda, sorta, not really related:
The other day I was riding the train and this dull-looking girl sporting a champion muffin top sat down across from me holding a cell phone, a video game, and an ipod. She was off in clueless-land listening to the ipod really loud and playing her annoyingly loud game, and as a result she didn't hear her stupid-ass ringtone blaring away. Finally someone nudged her and she turned it off. She saw me laughing and gave me one of those cracker "What are you laughing at?" being all tough and stuff.
I looked right at her and said "If one of your gadgets is so loud that you can't hear another one of your gadgets, you've got too many gadgets." Everyone laughed. She left. I felt smug. That is all.
