I love music also, but try not to knock other people's choices. I am certain that many would not enjoy some of my favorite music and visa versa. If the recording quality is good then that is a bonus, but never a deciding factor in choosing source material (unless a choice of quality is available, then I go for it of course).
2 Questions on General Music Preferences
Which would you prefer:
1) Substandard artistic content music that is masterfully recorded and playing on a state of the art system or incredibly wonderful music played on a Walkman in a bathroom?
And a more interesting one...
2) If your only choice for a long period (say, in the car with your significant other) is 5 hours of truly awful music or NO music, which would you prefer?
To start it off properly, I'll answer. First, if there were no high falutin' audio and all recordings sounded like the worst condition 78 rpm record ever heard, I'd still be a music lover. Second, life is too short to listen to Ricky Martin, Britney Spears or Shaun Cassidy. Five hours of that and I'd be ready for the nuthouse! Quite frankly, if the music is bad, I'd rather have silence for 5 hours than to listen to it for 5 minutes. So the real question from the above is... am I REALLY a music lover????
