How much do you care about music? (lemmy.zip)

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 think I care more than I should. But then most people didn't have their childhood shaped mostly by rhythm games so...

I have a very specific taste for music, and on top of that I basically don't listen to anything lower than a subjective 8 out of 10 in my books. Also some meme songs are timeless masterpieces (no I'm not giving examples)

Not really. I care much more about the melody than the sound effects, and unfortunately my ears aren't sensitive enough to tell much of the difference
I have very specific music that I listen to. At the very least it has to be a well-curated playlist, random playlist is a hard no for me
Actually I mostly listen to music just to enjoy it... I used to listen to music on long roadtrips but I don't do those anymore
No, but it's because there's no one to talk to. One of the downsides of only liking "alternative music" I suppose
Sometimes; there aren't that many artists making things I enjoy in the first place

Music is leaning much more towards art for me
