Plug and play USB microphone (lemmy.zip)

Can anyone suggest a plug and play USB mic for my raspberry pi (that you've used and know it works). I've managed to avoid work meetings on teams for a long time but there's one I can't get out of and my laptop broke so I'm computing only on my pi for the time being. Don't really care for webcam, noone needs to see me, but I need to be able to speak to them.

I haven’t tried with Linux, but it is a standard USB mic: Samson Meteor.

It’s $30-$40. It folds for travel. The audio quality is great. It can be mounted on an arm.

A post on linux.org from May says:

I bought a simple, cheap and cheerful usb mic - Samson Meteor condenser Microphone Analogue - and it all works great. Just plugged it in and away it went. I opted for a mic that didn't need any drivers. Apparently only the cheap ones don't come with drivers.

Just look for a nice cheap one on Amazon.
