    If you're unsure, then guesstimate.

    It turns out that over the past 6 months; I've listened to over 8 hours of music per day.

    I usually listen to music on YouTube, when I'm using the computer. I almost always listen to my MP3 player, when I'm playing video games. I usually listen to my MP3 player, when I'm reading books. I almost always listen to CDs, in the car. I usually carry my MP3 player, on longer trips. I'm excluding music I hear in my sleep, because I don't remember most of my dreams. And I don't really listen to background music in shops.

    Over 8+ a day.
    I get to listen to music where I work driving the trucks, and that's just about all day. Then usually on iTunes on my computer.

    Probably 8+ a day, especially on weekends or vacations where I often stay up late and listen to more music. Sometimes I worry that I listen to too much music. I use Spotify on my phone in the mornings and on my walk home from school, then after school I listen to music on my computer almost all the time. I don't spend a ton of time in the car, but I listen there too. If my CD player hadn't broken I would use that too.

    I spend as much time as I can listening to music, even when I sleep.

    Probably 1-2 hours a day but I do it in intervals. An hour here, half an hour there. That sort of thing.

    It depends on the day- anywhere from not at all to all day. Normally around a few hours :slight_smile:

    How do people find the time to listen to so much music? I listen (voluntarily) for about 30 minutes to one hour a day.

    I listen to music everywhere: On the commute, while I jog, when I'm at home... Even when I'm not really doing anything, I tend to leave iTunes playing in the background.

    I always have the radio on or am playing music on my computer. The only time I don't is when I'm asleep.

    (I used to, but my computer is shut down at night, which only leaves the radio, and there's only so many times a guy can be awakened by the Emergency Alert System being tested at 3 in the morning before they say ":***: it" and sleep in silence.)

    Ha- I listen to music all the time. Maybe not as much as 8 hours though I'm not sure, I think I underestimate it sometimes.

    I don't listen to as much music as I used to. Now it's a few hours a day but it used to be that I listened to it all day. It was always a big part of my life and I don't think I could live without it. I tend to take my mp3 player with me anywhere I go and when I'm at home there's always some music in the background.

    A fair amount of time probably about 2 hours a day (just sitting listening to music) not counting radios, you tube or video games.

    Wow, I surprise myself with how much I actually do. 5-7 hours per day. I do it during my break hours, while I study, and when I just ... feel like listening to music!

    If I'm not in school, I'm listening to music. If I could, I'd listen to music at my desk.
