That's true, and I'm not putting down background listening. But I don't think that being enthralled by music is possible when you are concentrating on another task. Imagine talking to someone and writing a letter at the same time. I can't imagine doing either task very well. Listening to music while you're mowing the lawn does make sense though, because mowing the lawn takes almost no intelligence or attention.
Subliminal absorption does work, but in a generalized diffuse way, and it's subject to distortion by primary process thinking--free associations, strange detours, etc. To listen to music in this way can only yield an emotionally and intellectually unfocussed response. I know. I've done it, and sometimes a diffuse background mood enhancer is all I want out of music. But not all that often.
