"In a car? On a plane? Skiing downhill? You're such a pompous ass. Music lover? I doubt it."

What kind of music are you talking about? Music that is designed to be enjoyed by idiots so that there will be a mass market?

When I drive a car, fly a plane or ski I don't listen to music. These activities require one's full attention for safety. Also, one must be able to hear outside noises, which makes it necessary to play decent music (which has dynamics) at such high volume as to be dangerous to one's hearing. If one has noise cancelling headphones then it is possible to enjoy music as an airline passenger. However, I do this as infrequently as possible as I don't like to be treated like cattle and irradiated and molested at the security theater checkpoints.
