I haven't read the other posts above, but here's my two cents:
A few years back I developed continuous tinnitus in both ears. I won't bore you or myself by explaining how. That doesn't matter anyway. From its inception I accepted the notion it most likely will never go away. I just ignore it at least 99.9% of the time. Aside from natural hearing loss based on aging, I do not feel the tinnitus has "ruined" my enjoyment of listening to music. So, do yourself a favor, like me and probably a number of others, just pay no mind to the tinnitus and continue to enjoy your music!
