just wear earbuds. way easier. i use the apple earbuds that came with my iphone. the stay in under a hat just fine and the have volume control, pause, skip, and i can make calls using voice commands and answer calls by hitting the button. greatest thing ever. i never have to take my hands out of my gloves and i can fully control everything on my ipod and calls. i highly recommend it for your ipod if you don't have an iphone.

Maybe consider a helmet with audio?
Never had one so I can say anything for quality but they look pretty legit and as long as it doesn't have crap audio quality then its ok for me.

yeah I did that almost all of last year, and they stayed on as long as you flipped the left earpiece to your right ear and the right earpiece to your left ear. Was pretty convenient but they fell off sometimes unless you wore your helmet straps over them. Wasn't too bad, but I'm just going to ditch the helmet this year and go with a beanie.

You can get Icons pretty easily for free.  And they're like 7 bucks all over the internet.  Not too bad of an investment...
