the at2020 (http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-AT2020USB-Cardioid-Condenser-Microphone/dp/B001AS6OYC) is one of the best USB mics and will give you extra budget for a shock mount and pop filter

The AT2020 as others have stated above is by far the best mic for your money. It sounds sexy as hell and is an absolute steal for that price! Perfect for what you want to use it for.

Listen to a comparison to the AT2020, AT2020 plus, and Blue mic spark. See which sound you like the most. Youtube has a bunch of videos on each. Although remember the blue mic spark has been compared to 1000$ shure microphones and while the 1000$ mic technically sound better according to analyzing with a computer, you can't really tell the difference at all even side by side, unless you are listening very hard and have superb headphones.
