Never rode with music... but I want to try it now. I cannot find any earbuds/speakers that are cheap and dont hurt me putting the helmet on/while wearing the helmet or taking the helmet off... My phone will die fast while listening to music. Thinking about picking up a cheap Ipod shuffle or something. They have really good battery life. I have a charging port on my bike but dont have a handlebar mount for my phone. For the same price as the mount, I can just get the mp3 player. Just need to find comfy speakers.
I dont think you would be able to really hear any speakers NOT in your helmet while riding... You would have to have really loud. Would just annoy most everyone around you
check out the links I droped in this thread on the first page I think
Neat, but I do like the Portable MP3 fact that I can hike, bike, car, etc with it as well. New shuffle is only like $49 or something like that. Seems most cost effective right now. Works fine for all my other needs, just need different ear speakers for helmet. Tried my wifes Ipod speakers and was a big no go. They were fine until wearing the helmet/taking it off.
Thinking about trying these earphones... JVC Marshmallows. Memory foam type ear piece. Does not have the long stem which is what the Ipod ones had which catch my helmet when taking off and ram into my ear.

JVC HAFX30B Marshmallow Inner Ear Headphones - Walmart.com
I use the ones that came with my Zune. They are probably equivalent to the $15-20 earbuds that can be found on sites like newegg.com. I then just take 1 earbud, put it in *upside down (so what little post there is is somewhat up and forward) then drape the cord over my ear to support it as I put my helmet on. Never really have a problem taking helmet on or off, just making sure I set enough slack above the collar of my jacket.

But I like music really loud.

Those helmet speakers work pretty well but you may need the amp at anything over 30 or 40 MPH
I ran across the first link in my "starting to search." If/when I do this, I will definitely make sure to take pics throughout the process.
