Buds or In ear?

[erkrow22]

I really need some advice on what I should get. I was using the stock buds that came with my sansa but the left side started having a short. So I went out and picked up a pair of phillips buds($10) but they sound like shat. I was thinking of getting some in ears but after some reading here I found that there may be issues with movment with the wires forcing me to wrap them up and around rather than hanging which doesn't really sit well with me. I need to move around in these but at the same time I also don't want to be completely blocked out from any noise.(things from people calling me etc) Really the stock phones that came with my player were quite good enough but as I said they went out. I've read the faqs and some other threads but I need some more personal advice here. Will the in ear wire issues hinder my experience really or should I just try to get some regular old buds? I really need help as I have no time and will base my decision off of any advice I recieve and quickly order something tomorrow. Thanks for any advice in advance.
