I've got some very nice SkullCandy headphones.
Feel really comfortable, sound is beautiful, and if I take them off my ears and lay them down, they make fairly good temporary speakers.
(Unfortuantely, I didn't notice my new computer has no speakers, and all the old speakers that I have are very crappy, or aren't compatible with the computer. Mainly because my family has been using Laptop's for so long.)
If you get a nice quality, stays-in-your-ear, comfortable earphone, they can be luxurious.
They're also slightly better for me, as I wear glasses.
As anyone with glasses may know, headphones can cause your ears to press down on your glasses, which is very uncomfortable.
