I think I'll get to listen today to about 12-13. 6 or 7 on average, usually. -------------

| Depends on how busy I am and what sort of music I'm listening to. Properly listening, sitting down and paying attention to the entire album without other distractions [computer, work etc], about two a day. At other times there is always music on, but I'm multi tasking while listening. If we take this into the equation, somewhere between 10-15 albums per day. |

I usually listen to 2-5 albums depending on how busy I am. I at least listen to one album a day. I'll split the difference and vote 3 albums. I don't like to overload myself with music. |

Let's see :
1 or 2 albums on the way to work (depending on the albums and traffic conditions)
1 during my lunch time
1 on my way back home (though I can rarely listen to a complete album then)
and at least one during the evening.
An average of 4 a day I believe. ------------- "One likes to believe in the freedom of Music" - Neil Peart, The Spirit of Radio |

| Depends on the time of year. I normally listen to 2-3 through my Walkman whilst commuting then a couple at night in the garden during the summer workdays or a couple on hi-fi / computer during the winter. On a couple of weekends this summer I listened to around 10 a day when I was doing a big project in the garden. I have about 400 albums on my Walkman which take about 3 months to run through. Average about 4 a day |

Haha yeah, I can't go a day without listening to at least one. On average I'd say about 3.

Depends. Usually around the equivalent of 2 full albums, sometimes split between different albums/artists. Hardly ever more than 5 (40+ minute) albums.

I probably average 3 or 4.... (I need to with the backlog of new CDs I seem to have to constantly get thru... )

Usually two per day, but lately I've been very busy and could hear only one per day or even none... But also there are some days, when I have more spare time, when I listen to 4 CDs in a row for example. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Barla/?chartstyle=LastfmMyspace">

I do about 5 on weekdays during the summer, probably closer to 7 while at school. Weekends are usually much less, zero or one. I picked five which I felt to be the best estimate. ------------- "One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall. " |

Usually 2 or 3. Most of the time, I'll just listen to random playlists featuring many artists.
Although, during a long car ride yesterday, I listened to about 5.

You have to take the weather into the equation in my case - during the summer I tend to be outdoors most of the time, so 1-5 sounds about right, depending on the day. However, during the winter when there's not much to do (here in Finland, that is) it might go up to 5-7 or so. -------------

Depends on the day. 1 in the morning over breakfast if daughter isn't up and the TV isn't on, 1 in the car, then I can get through 4 or 5 while at work if I'm on my own, 1 before dinner and if there's nothing on TV another 3 or 4 in the evening. So that's a maximum of 12 and a minimum of 2 - or and average of 5 (but in reality much higer) and I rarely listen to the same album twice in one week. So when my wife complains that I could never listen to all my CD's in a year - she is wrong. ------------- What? |

Usually no more than one, if at all. I much prefer listening to the radio lately. And no, not the charts (Goddess beware!), mostly classical, some jazz and whatever they play Monday to Friday from 3:05 pm to 5pm in a program called "Musikpassagen" ("Musical Passages"), which can be almost anything but is always highly interesting. "Musikpassagen" always has a theme, but what that theme is is completely open. It can be music related to a certain country, related to a certain style, related to a certain composer, related to food, related to haircutting or whatever comes to their mind. WDR 3 is an excellent radio channel.

I usually always listen to something when i'm at computer. So that makes 1-3 full albums a day. I like to listen full albums so if i don't have 45 minutes to do that i keep it silent.

There isn't really an average number for me. I voted three though. I usually don't listen to whole albums. I tend to change cd's quite frantically, usually stopping in the middle of songs to put other albums in. If I have my ipod with me, I could shift through probably 20 albums! ------------- for those about to prog, we salute you. |

Now, during the summer, I have an awful lot of time on my hands... That, combined with the fact that most days, I'm a 'no-lifer', means that I get to listen to very many albums during a day. Yesterday I listened to about 8 full albums, and a good amount of random tracks as well, but this isn't too much because I watched a lot of TV as well. Friday had much more in store for me, about 13 albums actually. Thursday - 9,5 albums Wednesday - only 6  Tuesday - 12 albums Monday - only 5 or 6 But I guess my average for this summer would be around 10, except for the days when I haven't been at home or haven't had access to albums to listen to. ------------- The scattered jigsaw of my redemption laid out before my eyes Each piece as amorphous as the other - Each piece in its lack of shape a lie

I rarely listen to "albums" unless I am in the car. I tend to put my computer or Gigabeat on random woth my entire CD collection. It's always nice to hear Shadowfax followed by Crass followed by Yes followed by James Brown followed by Strapping Young Lad followed by Stravinsky followed by the Residents. ------------- https://www.last.fm/user/Tapfret" rel="nofollow">  https://bandcamp.com/tapfret" rel="nofollow - Bandcamp |
