I heard if you call Micro$oft and say you're broke, they will send you a new pair free, usually no questions asked. I haven't tried it myself, but maybe someone else can shed more light on this...

I'm using the JVC Marchmallows right now. They're pretty good and you can get them for like 10 bucks on amazon.

get the KOSS Porta Pro headphones, they will give you the best sound quality for the lowest price, it actually destroys any other headphone in its competition, since theyre only $40.

Idk, I hated the Zune ear buds. They don't stay in my ear at all! And I tried changing the little black things to the different sizes. So i just use a pair I bought for 10 bucks at Barnes and Noble. I love them.

Default premiums replacements...

what earbuds are out there that go in the ear like the zune premiums and sound the same, maybe with some better bass? i like the in ear because it blocks outside noise. preferably below $30? sorry for all the ?'s .
