ok I know my PC thread was pretty shit and asked for too much since I didnt specify that I only needed a GPU and not a whole PC, but this is different.

I would like earbuds or headphones (preferably earbuds) to listen to
  • Dubstep
  • Trap Music
  • Youtube Videos
  • Livestreams
  • Podcasts
  • *I don't want anything for serious music, but the best headphones under 20 dollars for my purposes*

And yes, I know 20 dollars is too little for most headphones, but the best AT THIS PRICE POINT

what do yall think of the koss brand? http://www.amazon.com/Koss-T55959-U...TF8&qid=1462037194&sr=8-5&keywords=koss+UR-20

At that pricepoint, it really doesn't make a big difference what you get.

I use these all the time: http://www.amazon.com/Rokit-Boost-S...1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

Obviously would not work if you want to use them with PC, since I highly doubt yours has bluetooth.

I use a chromebook as my main computer, it has bluetooth and is fairly decent, but I cannot download "regular" software (because pretty much everything is web and chrome extension based).

In that case it's fine. I used this headset paired with 2 android phones, windows pc, and an amazon fire tablet without issues. No reason you shouldn't be able to pair it with a chromebook.

Personally just prefer staying wireless.

It's not great, but not bad at all. I like the fact that they are at least somewhat water resistant, and they do a decent job isolating... I use them at the gym for example, and often prefer them instead of noise cancelling ones because they sit right on ear kind of just drowning out the other noise better.

I bought a pair of these not long ago at Walmart: Philips Earhook Headphones : Target I checked the Walmart web site and they aren't listed so maybe they no longer sell them, but apparently Target and other stores still sell them. For something so cheap I was very impressed with the improvement over the cheap ones I was using before.

I personally use MEElectronics earbuds which go for under $20. They are meant for use when doing physical activity so they are durable, and their warranty is a +; have gotten 2 replacements over the course of 4 years from them when an earbud connection gets faulty from abuse (in my case)
