From the most budget-friendly and high-quality microphones available, it works directly with the PC via USB. What I would like it to have is some settings for sound direction (e.g. cardioid, front-back, and others) that exist but not in this model (ICE), something I was not aware of when I purchased it. If you can fix and adjust some things in editing programs like Audacity, Audition, the sound reaches another level.
I had it for many years, it taught me how to record, it is very good for beginners, it teaches you things, if I started again from the beginning, I would get it again, it is not as clear as a microphone with an external sound card, but with noise reduction, you can clean it up. I don't know if it's the best value for money anymore, many years have passed, many cheaper microphones have come out that sound good, but for many years, it didn't disappoint me for a moment. Don't expect a miracle in sound, but it sounds good.
I have to say that I didn't expect a 60 euro microphone to impress me so much. It really is worth the money and I would recommend it everywhere. If you want to use it for gaming, you will need to buy a mic arm (boom arm) because the tripod absorbs vibrations quite a bit.
It is an incredible microphone. I am truly amazed. Its sound is very clear and it has no interference from the surroundings at all. Although I believe that in order to get the maximum performance, one should install soundproofing or be in a room with good acoustics.

I have had it for two years, it was purchased on "Black Friday" for 45 euros. I chose the ice version because I didn't want many functions like the other two that the plain snowball has, but only to speak directly into the microphone for product presentations, YouTube gaming videos. I also use it quite a bit on Skype.
Pros:
1) It does not distort the sound and you sound very clear.
2) The construction and base are very sturdy, no matter where you place it, it doesn't move. Very good material.
3) Ability to adjust the microphone a few degrees up or down for better sound recording.
4) Relatively small size and doesn't take up much space.
5) It bears the name Blue, which is a top company in its field for microphones and audio recording software.
6) Ideal for recording YouTube videos, streaming, and Skype.
Cons:
1) The cost in Greece is very high, I believe it's worth around 50 euros or close to that. 100 euros is too much.
2) You have to be very close to the microphone to make a proper recording (in this specific model, the "ice," as it only records from the front and not from the left or right like the plain snowball. This means that you either have to buy an additional boom arm to bring it closer to your mouth from your desk, or, like me, you will have to bring it closer to you in other ways.
3) It does not have any sound isolation from its stand. You need additional software like Voicemeter Banana, OBS, Audacity, to adjust it to your needs.
4) It is not ready for use straight out of the box, it requires additional software for the aforementioned adjustments in order to use it to its full potential.
5) Since you will be close to it when speaking, you will need to buy a microphone filter to prevent sounds like "p" and "f" from being pronounced loudly, which can bother the viewer.
6) Because it picks up a lot of the surrounding sounds, you have to open and close it when you are on a Skype call or when you are playing with your friends, otherwise there will be sounds from the room or the same unit that will be annoying as it picks up almost every sound even at a distance.
Conclusion: It is worth it for under 50 euros. For someone who is into YouTube as a hobby, for someone who frequently uses Skype, but you should know that you will need additional software like the ones mentioned before to reduce the noise on the microphone and make other adjustments to set it up correctly. Don't expect it to be perfect straight out of the box. However, if you learn how to use it, it is a very good microphone of high quality that will last you for years.
Note 21/7/2023: I still have it and I use it for all my videos on my channel. It is wonderful and over time there are no disadvantages to it. It works like the first day.
I have it for about 7 years, and it's pretty good. The only problem is that the tripod base is not of very good quality. I also bought it for around 80 euros. Now, someone can find it for less than 60 euros. It's not worth it at 109 euros.
EDIT: The price at 60 to 70 euros is okay.
Whatever I say about this microphone at this price will be little.
I have had it for about 4 years and it still works.
If I could only say one negative comment, it would be that the switch at the back has deteriorated over the years and the different channels do not work properly (it produces interference).
It is very good for what it is (a USB microphone, no need for a sound card or plug and play drivers). If you want it for gaming, I wouldn't recommend it. Without push to talk, everything is heard within a distance of 5 meters from it, there is no sound isolation, but that's not its purpose anyway. For recording acoustic guitar/vocals amateurishly, it does a very good job. For recording an amplifier with an electric guitar/bass, I wouldn't recommend it.
