I bought my Sony MDR V150's when I bought my Memorex CD/MP3 Player. I knew I'd want the V150s after trying out the pair my cousin owns and seeing so many of my friends and acuantances with them.

Pros sound quality, comfortable, price
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

The main reason we decided on the Sony MDR-V150 was because we were beyond through with those darn ear buds. The hard ones that come with products today are just brutal.

Cons uncomfortable over time, cord too long for extreme portability, cord not removable

The Audio Technica M50s are a great addition to a music lover's life.
