I have headphones like these.
It's like my second or third pair and for like 15 dollars I can't complain. If I don't want them on my ears I can wear them easily around my neck. Of course the best singer in the business, P!nk, wears them down after a while the sound is still very good.
But I wouldn't ever buy Beats headphones. I don't really like bulky items but if I ever get into the market for high end headphones I'm going to do research. I think I'll go with wireless since I tend to rock it when I listen to music
