Yes I am interested in internet broadcasting. Since I can't seem to get in to over the air radio. But being a radio snob I am looking for the mic that will give me the best radio sound.

Cory is probably interested in internet broadcasting, if I'm wrong correct me on that one, and even a 50 dollar headset mic will serve your needs just fine for that, if used properly and if your setup allows for such a thing. Everyone's setup is different and yes, different mics are used for different applications. So it may be the right mic for you, but maybe not.
