Hi Richard and All, Richard said it well "good is a relative term" and so is "comfortable". You can get some rather nice headphones for $150 or $200 and most people would call them good, but for an audio file a pair of $800 or $1,000 headphones with a $1,500 dedicated headphone amp may qualify as good.
As for comfortable, I never thought the old earbud style headphones were uncomfortable and unless I wanted to listen to music and get better sound they were my preferred headphones. Now I bought a set of the new Apple earpods and they have now become my favourite headset. I can have those in my ears for hours and feel comfortable, I love the fact they don't block out external sounds and they do sound better than the old earbuds, not as good as my $200 VMoto headset, but not bad at all for $35. I personally really dislike those earbuds with foam that you have to stick half way into your brain and which seal off your ear like those cheap foam earplugs you twist so they become thin and then after you stick them into your ears the foam expands to block off sounds. To me those are the most uncomfortable thing there is and while some say the Apple earpods fall out of their ear, for me they stay in perfectly. But that just shows how different opinions can be and it's the reason why if somebody asks 10 people what a "good headset" is they most likely get 10 different answers.
