Until looking just now, I thought headphones were either "earbuds" or the full headphones. Earbuds are the kind Apple sells, while "in-ear" headphones are the ones I find comfortable for hours at a time. The cheap kind I like now are Skullcandy's Ink'd 2 which have a silicone ear-tip. I think I just lucked out in getting an ear-tip that's finally the right size. If you haven't tried in-ear headphones yet, I definitely recommend trying some out - maybe you'll find a pair that works for you.
- nicky0 10y agoI'm not clear what you are saying. It seems you are defining "in-ear" headphones as ones that are comfortable for your particular ears, and "eaebuds" as those that are not comfortable for you.
- smcl 10y agoI think the distinction is the ones with the squishy tip that mould to your ear cavity (so there are no gaps), versus the ones that are mostly hard and sit relatively loosely
