Headphone recommendations for iPod

I've had two pairs of ex71's and on both of them the left bud has stopped working within about 6 months; a shame because the sound is pretty good for the price.
These senn's look very similar and aught to be pretty good given sennheisers past record...

Just got to find somewhere to buy them for a decent price now...

my ex71s died spectacularly. the wire coating just peels off after a while!
3 pairs in 18 months was enough so I got some xtrememac FS1's last week, and they are truly excellent. highly recommended

It seems my quest for the perfect headphones has been thwarted again.
As per my previous post, I went back to my old faithful Sony MDR-ED21LP’s after buying several different and more expensive headphones that I didn’t like. I thought I’d leave it at that and stick with the Sony’s, but I happened across a pair of Sony MDR-ED31SP’s. From the pic they looked very similar to the ones I know and love, so I ordered a pair. They turned up this morning, and to my horror when I opened the package they have that stupid ****ing cable arrangement where the left earphone has a 4 inch cable and the right is about 14 inches!
WTF is that all about? It looks ****ing stupid! Suffice to say that I haven’t worn them, as I have no desire to look like a *******.
Sony are going to a very angry email from me for not mentioning in the specs that these were designed by Joey Deacon.
My house is starting to look like the place where headphones come to die.

Its called a neck chain, nothing wrong at all with it. But if you try to put them on the way you wear normal phones, you deserve to look like a bell.
