i'm looking for the best quality mic i can get for the cheapest to do some podcasting.
the epic is $37, and the jbuds is $26.
i was thinking to get the jbuds since its $10 cheaper, but is the epic talk worth an extra $11??
For what i'm doing it doesn't have to be the best sounding, but if its actually worth an extra $11 i'll consider it.
Also, would i be better off with any other comparable price mic over Jlab mics?
It'll just be in a bedroom on my linux computer and screen recording.

Thanks!
it looks to me like the only difference between the jdubs for $26 and the epic for $38 is the jbuds is 96 sample rate and the epic is 192.
I read the 192 sample isn't too useful for most people over 96.
So now i'm leaning towards the jdubs for $26
But is there better mics for $26 for doing basic podcasting (i dont care about looks as i wont be on video)??
