Ok so i got all your problems figured out!! lol
This is how i have my icon set up
Heres what you need...
an ipod shuffle (found this one for $15 at a pawn shop)
Set of radio shack over the head headphones(yes i know they are cheep but i can hear my music just fine at 90 mph and can still turn it up more)
some velcro ( i used 1 1/2 inch round)
When your done you have a self contained system. No headphones to rip out of your ears when you take off your helmet. Having the speakers where they are makes it easy to hear whats around you while still having the tunes. Changing songs is easy just push the bottom button on the ipod, takes one second. You dont have to remember to hook everything up before you leave. AND best of all no worying about what songs or songs getting old, just hook it up to the comp and hit reload and it puts all new music on it!! lol
Sorry for the long explaination of what and how i listen lol

On the CBR, I listen to the Top 20 (whatever's new), bit of hip-hop, rap...anything with a beat. Best all-time song ever.....DANGER ZONE: Kenny Loggins....I know it's corny but it gets me pumped! Lol Tends to make the front of the bike a bit light though 
When I takes the cruiser, I prefer rock (ACDC, Metallica, Nickelback). Just something a little slower but still has a good beat!

I got a whole gag of music on my iPod. Things like: Def Leppard, Van Halen, Underoath, Killswitch Engage, Bloodhound Gang, Bullet For My Valentine, The Dangerous Summer, Coheed & Cambria, Deltron 3030, Foo Fighters, Deftones, Thrice, Thursday, ATDI, Form of Rocket, Funeral For A Friend, Senses Fail...The list goes on and on.
I just make a few playlists that I usually just put on random and let her buck. There are a few songs that are in all my playlists just because they're f*****g epic songs.
