What aftermarket stereo should I buy?

I want to upgrade my stock car stereo in my 2000 Civic EX. I can't stand the quality of FM transmitters, so above anything else I want something that at least has an AUX input. It would be nice to have a USB hookup for my iPod touch, but that's not a necessity at this point.
I want to spend under $100 if possible.
How involved would it be to upgrade? What would you guys recommend?

EDIT: whoops, I think this should be in this forum.

The nice thing is since this is a 2000 you won't need a dash install kit. All you will need is a wire harness. A nice radio and harness will be hard to get for under $100. A pioneer radio is definitely the way to go. They are the best bang for the buck. I have an alpine right now and would much rather have my old pioneer back. Just my 2 cents.

I'd say your best bet would be a Pioneer or an Alpine. There the best on the market right now.

Three years later but I still also agree, Pioneer is the way to go.
