Who were earbud h/phones designed to fit?
I got an MP3 player which comes with those annoying earbud headphones that just refuse to stay in my ear, unless I remain motionless - and even then they're not that secure.
Now it's not just a case of replacing the phones, because as is usually the case these days, the headphones are also the way to carry the player round my neck.
I'm looking for a recommendation for a solution that isn't going to break the bank (considering that it's not one of the £100+ players, so even £20 headsets are too much.)

I get that problem too, but I find it I put the little foam covers on, that they stay put. I think I have funny shaped earholes or something!

Re: Who were earbud h/phones designed to fit?
I use headphones that fit around the back of the head and over the tops of my ears.Bit like the bluetooth ones but a damn sight cheaper and the most comfortable I've ever owned.
In fact like these but without the extra control switch.

Apart from which, they're just the earphones - mine are also the neckstrap for the player, and I'm not wearing 2 lots of earphones!

They work for me as you squeeze them before you put them in your ears and then they expand in your ear.
