Got some nice ones, but if I do anything but walk or run for a minute they start to come out of my ear. I need a pair with awesome sound that are runner friendly. Something under $100 would be ideal.

What are you using?

    Yurbuds - 30-50 and won't fall out. Sound decent.

    I use skull-candy ones. Good sound, block out a lot of outside noise, and stay in my ear.

    after trawling forums the Koss clip on headphones seem to be unanimously a good recommendation. i got one for $20 and they're durable as heck. best sound quality for its price.

    I like skull candy too. They stay in my ear and the sound quality is pretty good. Also, they're cheap.

    The sound quality is super important to me. I'll pay more for that if needed. Don't want it to sound like I'm listening to my phone in my pocket. :)

    I have one pair that stay on, but the sound is meh at best.

    Sennheiser sports wrap around headphones are king. Have been running with the same pair for 5 years. Never had a pair of earphones (even non-running ones for everyday use) last that long. Comfortable, good bass response, durable...... nowadays they come in yellow and black, but mine are the old green ones.

    seems you can still get them in green!

    You will probably get better advice at av forums and people who understand sound. But then again, if you are listening to horrible compressed music files a pair of 1000 dollar headphones won't polish the proverbial.

    In the same way a 10 dollar pair playing uncompressed files will sound superb. Audiophiles have different criteria.
