Exactly. I fits better but is more likely to pop out.
Ah, I can see why.
Apple's $80 earbuds have three different sized silicone tips to adjust the fit. They sound quite good and stay in place.
But most any half-way decent set of 'buds with silicone tips [insert joke here] will sound better than the OEM 'buds since they seal with most ears much better.
I've used the Griffen EarThumps which converted some models of Apple's 'buds to in-ear use, but they made the sound waaaaaay to bass-heavy for my tastes.
