I take about an hour long bike ride a day when I'm not at work all day, and sometimes I like to listen to music.

Ignoring that, on average, around 3 hours of music I actually choose to listen to myself.

When I'm at home and the mrs is at work, music is always on, never have tv on during the day. Music in the car is mandatory, if the wife is with me I have to compramise my choice, got to be something we both enjoy.

In the evening when the wife's watching the tv, I'll have the headphones on listening to the I pod.
 
So much music, so little time

Wait a second.  Are you me? LOL

Well, mine's a Zune and I probably watch more TV than you do, but that's kind of spooky. Shocked

3 hrs is probably a fair average for a normal day.

Yes, I have the same problem. Not exactly about Opeth but just about Progressive Rock

I run a home business basically off of my Macbook. By home business, I mean I spend 99% of my business time in front of my computer coding. That ranges from 4-14 hours a day, depending on my mood and deadlines. 

I also like to listen to music while going to sleep, if my girlfriend lets me - and I still enjoy listening to an album or two on the nice stereo instead of my headphones when I get the chance. I also listen to music while cooking, doing chores, etc...so on average, probably 8+ a day.

If people at my house don't want to listen to Magma, well, tough, they can go upstairs

Two hours. Any more and I usually get musical indigestion.

1 or two. specially while i´m driving..
 
when i´m alone i´m always listening to music. but that´s rare.

and resentment rides high but emotions won´t grow
And we´re changing our ways, taking different roads..
Then love, love will tear us apart again.."
