Although mine are nowhere near under the price point you are looking for, I absolutely love my Shure SE420-K earbuds.
I found that over the 2-3 years of buying inexpensive earbuds I easily spent a total that equals the cost of the Shure's.

Shure makes some less expensive models that are excellent also:

SE110
SE210

Both are under $100.00 at amazon

Shure is where it's at. They are built to withstand the rigors of touring with musicians so they will stand up to your commute easily.

Try to find your self a set of e2's.

If I understand correctly the se110 is the replacement for those but the e2's seem a lot more durable to me and are about half the price of the se110. I've had mine for going on 5 years now. Definitely get the foam buds for them, I find the foam much more comfortable than the plastic.
