Can you help me find over-the-ear Earbuds?

Sep 7, 2009 6:03AM PDT

Hi, I'm searching for a good set of over-the-ear earbuds for my iPod nano.

- I really prefer earbuds that don't sit inside the ear canal.
- Construction is important, I take care of my stuff but my earbuds tend to fall apart.
- Sound quality isn't that important (I listen mostly to rock, if that matters).
- I'm looking for something less than $40.

All the best. Thanks, in advance!
