I got one of those "surprise" retirements two years ago. ;-)
So I thought I'd be listening more too. But because I'm trying to wait until age 70 to start collecting social security and need some "spending money" in the meantime, I expanded what had been a "moonlighting" activity (piano accompanying) into something more time consuming. So now, instead of listening to more recorded music, I'm actually participating in my music more! It's a wonderful job, but a very unpredictable source of income! ;-)
In addition, my wife (who also wants to wait until age 70 before she starts collecting social security) does contract web development for various companies - so she's at home during the day and doesn't want the audio system blasting away while she's working. So I'm among those who (so far) are listening less than I did when I had a full time job.
