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?

I cant really tell the difference between mid range and high quality gear/music but I can't stand low quality gear/music.

I never listen to playlists or individual songs, albums all the way! It's the way the artist intended it after all!

Yes I regularly just listen to music. Especially when no one else is in the house I'll turn up the sound system and listen to some nice albums.

Definitely! Jazz is the most underrated music genre, most people don't give jazz the chance it deserves because they think it's for old people (as a young person I can tell you it's not) Progressive rock is amazing, the prophets song from queen is one of queens best songs. And Radio head is over-hyped.

I mostly get music from friends and other people that are interested in music.

Exactly. Listening an album tells a story.
