Not much:

-samson meteorite

-samson go mic

 

Both a decent, but if you can steping up to the $50-70 range will yeild much better sound quality:

-Samson meteor (the mic I use)

-Blue snowball

 

-If you budget is firm you can always buy used on ebay. It is very difficult to break a mic.

A lot of my friends have a blue snowball and they seem to like it a lot but i really enjoy my Audio-Technica ATR2500 and for only a little bit more money its well worth waiting and saving up!  Here is a link : https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATR2500-USB-Cardioid-Condenser-Microphone/dp/B004QJREXM

The Meteorite is a piece of trash, sounds like it too. Get the Go Mic instead. Watch podcaster's review on YouTube, he has a video comparing many USB mics under $50. Or just read this: The Go Mic wins. I found it for $36 with free worldwide shipping on eBay.

 

Have fun.
