I fully agree with you - dropping about 20 bucks to get a decent set of earbuds is not that much trouble.
What gets me, is that there a reason why the earbud used by Apple is NOT meant to be inserted so into the ear canal ..

Ihope this guy doesn't play back the audio cranked up regardless of how snug that piece fits in.
strider_mt2k has it right - cut the end off the adapter with some cable to spare and make an adapter. It's that hard to use a multi-meter to trace out what wires are what.
