in-ear headphone recommendation?

[davemchine]

Huh, in reading the thread you pointed to and reading another thread inside that thread (confused yet?) I see there are "in-ear" and there are "ear-buds". I didn't realize there were two different styles. Now I'm really confused about what to get.

I will cross the slightly gross line and share that I have a significant ear wax problem. Would buds be better than in-ear given that issue?
