What do you listen to your music on?

I've seen some headsets advertised that are made from one solid strip that goes around the back of your head and over your ears, that have an mp3 player built in and they look pretty good but I'm wondering whether they would bounce when running? I currently use some in-ear earphones attached to mp3player/phone but am looking for some alternatives!

What do you use to play your music on when you work out?

    I just use regular old headphones(like cheap 10 dollars ones from walmart) and my phone.. I don't get too tangled up in them.

    Some people like to slide the cord under their shirt and that helps them.

    Sony Walkman MP3 player. Love it! It holds a lot of music, is sweat-rain proof.

    Use a Phillips wrap around set of earphones, They're comfortable and stay in place during runs.

    I-pod nano here, the headphones are the ones you clip over the ears, they stay in during running and are as clear as a bell. I have to tuck the wire through my top though otherwise I would catch my arms in it and pull it out of the i-pod.

    I use my iPhone and the headphones that came with it. I also use my phone to track mileage which is awesome.

    I use an ipod shuffle for variety and surprises. If I'm doing c25k then I use my iphone so I can run a c25k app at the same time as listen to music.

    I have these $10 bass enhancing earphones I bought at Sears for $12 two years ago. Use them for my iPod or iPhone.
    I prefer the earphones that came with my iPhone, though. They have volume control on the cord which makes it easy to adjust as opposed to taking my armband off because I can't get the volume control to work right with it on. >:( Left them in Chicago, though. Bummer
