Headmuffs
I have too many types of headphones I think.
- Earbuds for iPod listening during the commute. (Apple iPod Earbud Headphones, not the ones that come with the iPod -- decent sound, not great)
- Sweat-proof, collapsible headphones for running (Sony MDR-A35G S2 Sports Headphones -- love these, sweat is not an issue and I am one sweaty bastard)
- Crappy earbuds for inserting under hat when running outside in winter (whatever)
- Noise-cancelling for long plane flights and at work (Sennheiser PXC 250 -- LOVE these, highly recommended)
- Big padded ones for make-believe DJ'ing (Sennheiser HD 202 -- nothin' special)
When I travel I actually have three of these in my backpack. That's ridiculous. What is my problem?

I'd be curious to know what kinds of headphones you're using for each category. Especially the noise cancelling ones.

I higly recommend the Etymoyic ER-6i (http://www.etymotic.com/ephp/er6i.aspx). Reasonably priced at around $150, they are the only pair of headphones you may ever need.
As they are in-ear plugs, they may take some getting used to, but they sound great. Good for jogging, planes, sleeping, etc. Easy to care for and clean. I love them

i've been looking into the earphones Shure makes. E3c look nice, the E5c ($500!) even nicer.
