I’m assuming everyone here listens to music somewhat regularly, but I’m curious about how much you care about it. And i specifically want to know about your enjoyment regardless if it’s considered a timeless masterpiece or just a meme song. (feel free to share you favorite artists while respecting other’s tastes)
Do you care about having decent enough devices to enjoy it or do you just buy the cheapest pair of earbuds to silence the world around you?
Do you have favorite albums or do you just hit play on a random playlist and zone out?
Do you ever listen to music just to enjoy it and nothing else?
Do you talk with passion about your favorite songs/albums/artists?
Do you spend time searching for music?
TL;DR is music art or content to you?
Music itself is important. But for me actively listening to it is not as much. If I am in silence I start to sing - hum random folk songs and I won’t even notice that I’m doing it. So I do need music or an audiobook so people won’t get annoyed with my antics.
It is a very weird situation, because while I don’t actively seeking music and I don’t really notice mid quality speakers - my phone still has about 20gigs of mp3s.
