What are the best budget earbud headphones for iPod?

I'm looking to purchase some earbud headphones to use with my iPod. I don't really want to spend more than US$50 unless it's really worth my while. The Sony MDR-EX71* earphones are one set that I'm considering (I was quite happy with the EX51's that have recently died).

I want something fairly natural sounding, that has good bass response.

Any suggestions?

Update:

Sorry, i meant earphones, not headphones

    I saw some Bose headphones in Best Buy for 130 bucks.

    They had some earphones for 99 dollars.

    I don't know if there's actually a difference between headphones and earphones, but I always call the ones that go IN your ears earphones. Headphones go around.

    Makes sense to me...
