Uh hi - Apple earbud sound quality is terrible. If you really like music, you can't listen to it with earbuds, Apple or otherwise. Plus, they fall out of your ears if you move about too much. If you just spent the $30 on some Sony headphones, you'd get better quality. Or, make an investment in some real headphones. But don't use earbuds and then tell people you like music, 'cause it's just not true.

I use both but I do hear that the Apple headphones function full time at a decibel harmful to the human ears. I think they sound like crap anyways but they look damn sexy!

I occasionally use the apple headset because of the mic, however I am thinking of buying the apple headphones that fit into the ear. When I run or ride my motorbike I use sennheiser because they fit in the ear and cut out some of the outside noise, also when I ride my motorbike the sennheisers are the only ones that fit under my helmet.
If the apple headphones that fit into the ear are ok then I may start to use them more.
Remember you can only please some of the people some of the time not all the people all of the time!!!!!

The only good reason to use Apple earbuds is because of the in-line remote and mic. Nothing else seems to work quite as seamlessly with my iphone.

The UrbanEars Plattan are pretty much the perfect headphones for the iPhone 4.
They look great, got great sound and they double as a headset.
I never bothered with the Apple provided headphones, in my opinion they are cheap crap.
I have generally preferred Sennheisser headphones or canalphones, but recently purchased the Apple canalphones for iPhone 4 and am quite happy with their sound/cost ratio.
