Listening VS Reading



Breakdown your time spent on audio

( listening while reading = reading )

me - 70/30 reading

I do 98% of my listening while surfing the web (reading news, sports, Audiogon, EBay, etc...).
10% listening
20% reading
5% looking at cover art
6% drinking/eating
12% driving
19% thinking
2% trading
3% laughing
5% choosing the next CD
5% %#!$%ing
6% writing
2.76% calculating
4.24% trying to reconcile the last 4% of the time spent :)
I did way too much reading at the job I retired from. So I do NOT usually read. I did however, decide to reread the last two Harry Potter books, so I read Half Blood Prince the first night, and Deathly Hallows the second. A lot of material to carefully read through, but my eyes were just fine after that bit of light exercise.
So my reading is usually near zero. but on occasion.

- yes I'm talkin' about time spent reading anything audio related vs time spent just listening to your gear. I'm sure most of us have the music flowing while we surf the audio sites but this thread counts that as reading.
The Thread defines "Listening" as - fairly to really loud volume, dark room, eyes shut and probably some kind of mild intoxicant.

- "5% %#!$%ing" that's 72 minutes a day, c'mon man you can do better than that.

- Please read the more clearly defined question and the Thread shall grant you a do-over. Since it's the long weekend you have until Tuesday!
