So much so that I've put my iPod Nano away and have been using the Zune exclusively since I've had it. Surprisingly, the $30 (I think they're $29.99) fancy in-ear buds from Zune are very nice. The cloth-like texture is a nice bonus too! I’m a big fan of my Zune and I agree – the interface is much nicer than that of the iPod.

I haven't tried their in-ear offering. I tried several in-ear earbuds including really high end ones from Shure, etc. and settled on the sennheiser CX 300 and am extremely happy with them. They might lack 5% of the quality of the $500 shures, but they are $99 and sound worlds better than the apple earbuds. In my experience the fidelity and clarity of any in-ear headphones compared to regular earbuds or over-ear headphones is amazing, and the sennheisers are great. http://tinyurl.com/5kzgsa As for earbuds I think the apple ones are hilariously bad, I feel bad any time I see someone using them.
