Honestly, I would recommend a good pair of Bluetooth headphones because it is amazing how simply being able to shut out the world can relax a person.

Though I haven't actually found good bluetooth headphones for sub $100. My favorite so far were the Senheiser PXC550 (I think thats it). But mine have gotten chewed by a dog :(. I liked the audio quality, didn't love the touch controls, but the cheap headphones I've gotten to replace them just sound awful.

I am impressed with this pair of Silensys PRO Bluetooth headphones. I got them on sale at Amazon for around ~54.00 USD and they're surprisingly adequate. I don't have the money to justify a better pair. They're even noise cancelling too.

Galaxy buds 2 with a good pair of comply foam earbuds tips clocks in at exactly $100 and has a remarkably solid sound for Bluetooth earbuds. If you want audio quality though you're not going to get it in Bluetooth headphones, there you mostly pay for convenience, but I got some galaxy buds 2 recently and they were fine stock but the foam tips sincerely make a huge difference.
