im thinking of starting youtube and i need a mic and a headset to compliment this. i have a budget of £50 for now and ive looked at brands such as sennheiser, logitech g series, blue snowball, sony ecm-cs10, zalman zm-mic 1, Samson Meteor USB Studio Microphone.
im focusing primarily on the mic quality, secondly comfort and durability, and finally audio quality.

also any software, hardware, peripherals that you can also suggest to get better voice recording quality.

thanks

The snowball will take all your budget.
But I have one and it's infinitely better than the one that came with my steelseries sensei v2. It makes pretty much every shortlist out there for best USB microphone, so it must be doing something right.
Looking at amazon that leaves you with 5 pounds for . . . . some random earplugs?

I really like headphones that fit over the entire ear, but you won't make that with that budget.
I do, however, suggest to keep to your priorities and primarily invest in the microphone.

Good stat-up software is Audacity.
