Continuing the topic of classes in public transport, I would like to discuss listening to music combined with other activities.
You know, I really love music, I cannot be called an audiophile, since for me any music is emotions and mood, and not sound quality, compressed and uncompressed formats. I can listen to my favorite songs in the background in almost any activity: work, rest, travel, even before going to bed. By the way, I often fell asleep in the subway to the music in my headphones. While reading, I also prefer to have some tracks of my favorite artists or classical music played in the background. And then recently I heard from several people feedback about the fact that they cannot concentrate when any melody is playing in the background. And I decided to find out how massive this phenomenon is. Dear readers, please tell us how you feel about background music? Does it help you work or does it interfere with your work? Can you read to the music or is it annoying?
P.S. But I can't work and listen to podcasts, the focus is constantly jumping between one and the other.
