i mean alot of listen to music inthe car, at home while cooking or cleaning, some just listen to relax, how many hours do you listen to music? i would say i listen to music probably about 5 hours a day if not more. i have always listened to alot of music though somedays i listen to music for 10 plus hours but i guess ave is at least five a day. it is never just one type of music but alot of different types as well. if i have it on sterio then i flip channels all the time. if on the computer it is just a variety set up. i never listen to cds though cause i get bored with just one group real quick.

I listen to different types of music and my average is 4 hours a day. Sometimes during weekends my radio was on for a day, and I will just turn it off if I will be watching television. For me my day will never be complet without a music, music gives me energy, it inspired me and delight me. It makes me happy and slightly satisfied with my day to day routine.

I spend most of the day with some kind of music playing in the background. When I am using the computer I have my iTunes in the background, and when I am on the road, I have my little personal CD player with music playing. Hubby and I don't own a car, but we have plenty of other places we can listen to music.

I only listen to music in my car. That is about an average of one hour a day. I sometime turns it on while in the house but this is very rare. I find so many other things to occupy my time while home but when I'm in the car I'm in one place and it is easier for me to listen and enjoy it. I only listen to gospel music

Oh man that's pretty hard to say but I would have to say that I probably listen to music for at least three to four hours a day. I love music and would actually hope to be a musician at some point in my life. I wouldn't mind going to college to study music but it would be really hard for me too be able to get enough money together and stuff to pay for that. I hate the radio because it doesn't play what you want it too and it seems like you hear the same song played over and over again. Oh and I completely hate classic rock so listening to the radio just kind of ruins music for me.

I listen to it mainly in the car. I drive alot some weeks so it can be anywhere from like an hour a day to 5 hours or so depending on what I am doing, where I am going, etc. I used to have a TON of cds but I got rid of them, I never really listened to them, I prefer the radio instead.

Just a couple of hours in the evenings after I get back home from work. That is my way of relaxation after a long day at work. My favorites are classical musics, Chopin, Johan Strauss, Beethoven, Brahms, and others. I wish I could have more time !

i listen to music every day. about an hour at least. but i usually listen to same music. cause when i get to like one song i tend to keep playing it till i mastered its words. and also that is my way to past time when i am just getting bored at home. specially there is nothing to do at home than to sit in front of computer and also listen to background music while i am doing my online things. music or listening to it makes me my mind active and makes me thing more positively in life. like when i am down, music renew my spirit. but it will just depend on what music i listen to. but i will say that music is just some sort of inspiration that i hope will help me to have the courage to face life and go with life. with music playing i recall some things , like positive things that i tend to visualize and makes me want to reach for that kind of things that i am visualizing. and so i get to focus my mind on that thing in my head that i visualize which are the things i hear from the music. and that gives me a sense of direction and hope to see my self in situation that i can reach. those things that i long to have in my life seems to be so possible when i visualize them with some help of music.

Very rarely actually. I love listening to music but it's just not that often I actually am in the mood. That's something that has changed with me dramatically for the past years... I'd say I listen to music less than 30min per day, but the days when I actually get in the mood it'll become 1 - 3 hours.
