Quite a bit. Krautrock, RPI and Prog-Folk are what I mainly listen to when it comes to prog, I guess. But TD makes me cringe...

I listened to a little Krautrock once. Really dug the vibe, wish I could remember what band it was. Its one of the genres I'll slowly work my way towards in a year or two, I feel.

I'm not sure what to vote here.
It's not as good as "I really like it" but better than "it's alright I guess".

I never listen to it (unless I try a PA mp3 sample), but it goes too far to state that it sucks, so I think that option #4 fits me better. Sometimes it sounds good to me, but manchmal I feel forced to think that the performing artists have smoked too much...  ... Kraut.

Option 4. I can't really see loving the genre anytime soon, but there are a couple of albums that I enjoy.

I prefer playing Krautrock with my friends over listening to it...
Option 3 for me.

Yeah, that's always kinda bugged me too. I guess "Kosmiche Musik" is too long to say, but still, that doesn't make the alternative okay.

I like krautrock and listen to it when I'm in the mood for it. I used to have a strange obsession over it a few years back, but that has now subsided.

Would you like some Bailey's?

Krautrock will possibly be my most listened to genre in the coming months, along with some Prog Electronic. It's a good genre for fall/winter. I need more Krautrock albums though, my collection is embarrassingly thin.

I think a lot of people tend to classify much of Krautrock as space rock in their minds.
