Any recomendations for in ear earphones for the ipod?

Requirements

1. No noise leaks to piss other people off
2. Decent bass
3. Will stay in my ears when running
4. £20 or less

What say the PH experts?

Good spot! Girlfriend has the original CX-300's for her ipod and thinks they're great - I was looking for similar, but Richer Sounds had these for £30. Thought I'd struck lucky on Play.com, but the 'playtrade' ones being sold for about £7 are Chinese fakery judging by reviews.

Cheers for the linky - just ordered a set.

I bought some Senheiser IE7's and they are awesome (but out of the budget you mentioned). I also bought some Monster Beats (think that's the name, flat Red cable).....they were crap.

Do the aftermarket ones have all the control and mic of the originals?

You can still use the iPod to make free Skype calls.
