Pros: Great sound, compact size, actually stay in your ear, even when running.
Cons: Take a little getting used to, but once you do you'll love them.

Pros: No outside noise to deal with and inexpensive
Cons: Can't hear voices either and static discharge-prone
The Bottom Line: Not too expensive, gets rid of all outside noise, solid sound. Could use more thoughtful construction. Not a good option if you are often pulling your headphones on and off

Pros: Great bass, great isolation, cheap, tiny.
Cons: Uncomfortable for long wear, pads aren't that robust.
The Bottom Line: These are a great choice if you are getting earbuds, the sound and isolation is unmatched in that category.

Pros: Good sound quality, in-ear type, inexpensive for the model
Cons: Problems with the expanding foam
The Bottom Line: Suggested if you are listening to music in noisy places or have usability issues with standard hearphones. Sometimes the ear canal gets sore.

Pros: Cheap, light, loook stylish, good noise insulation, good sound with ports covered, efficient
Cons: Cumbersome to put on, need ports covered to sound better, my ears get tired quick
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend the Koss SparkPlug as a cost-effective alternative to noise-cancelling headphones. Make sure you are ready to do minimal DIY with clear...

Pros: Cheap. Noise filtering. Unpowered. Small. Fantastic Bass
Cons: You have to stick them IN your ears. Treble is lacking. Cheap foam around canula
The Bottom Line: They're not too expensive, and they're above average. Though their sound leaves some to be desired. Cheap, fashionable(ish) noise filtering make these worth a buy for a low enough price.

Pros: Good isolation only with 3rd party earplugs
Cons: Very bad bass-heavy muffled sound, bad foam earplugs. Not worth it.
The Bottom Line: I don't recommend these plugs at all. I'll be looking for Shure or Etymotics, but even low cost users should look elsewhere.
