With the start of 2PR-Live going well, I'm looking into getting a professional USB microphone, for recording proper voice overs and so on. I'm not interested in getting any pre-amps, in-out boxes as this is going to be more wires, already adding to the rats nests at the back of my computer, hence it being USB.
Going through some websites, I've had a listen to the SAMSON C01U microphone, listed on this page.

Ebay has a few on the Australian site for around AU$153-$160 at present.
I was pretty impressed with the sound sample.
Looking at the next page, I saw the Audio-Technica AT2020 USB heavily discounted from $249 to $149. Has anyone had any experience with this one?

When I'm in a better position in November, I would like to get a mic, but during the interveining time, would like to hear some feedback, (pardon the pun)
As the station is continuous music, the Mic will be mainly used for getting voice talent into recording new voice overs, and read-outs for sponsor announcements for the station.
