View Full Version : Do you listen to music on the kindle while reading? demoric 07-15-2009, 12:24 PM Do you listen to music while reading on the Kindle? I was just curious as to how many people use this feature, also if you do please post the genre(s) that you listen to while reading. drzeller 07-15-2009, 01:05 PM Bad choices! What if you don't, but it is not because it is annoying?! I just don't happen to do it. D. kevindorsey 07-15-2009, 01:34 PM NOt really. I got a laptop for music. fugazied 07-15-2009, 09:26 PM Depends upon what I am reading. If I am reading something which requires me to think to understand the content (Chomsky, John Ralston Saul), then no music. If it's harry potter, I'll have music on :) rcuadro 07-16-2009, 08:36 AM I prefer quiet while I am reading SolRaven 07-19-2009, 11:57 PM Hmmm.... this was an interesting poll. I have never listened to music from my reader while I was reading, but I tried it today and I think I may be addicted! What a great idea! I don't always listen to music when I'm reading, but I have found that it helps my mind from wondering while in the middle of a book, so this is perfect solution for me. :) catsittingstill 07-21-2009, 07:12 PM Anything with words makes it impossible for me to concentrate. I could read with, say, classical music on, but don't bother. If I were trapped with a loud talker while I was trying to read I might use instrumental music to drown them out. But I would use my iPod for that rather than taking up perfectly good Kindle memory that could be holding books with big music files. demoric 07-24-2009, 10:33 AM Hmmm.... this was an interesting poll.

I tend to listen to music and read if I'm really stressed. It helps me relax. I usually listen to classical or jazz when reading a book. However back when I used to read dead tree textbooks I'd listen to Rock to keep from getting too bored. I have enjoyed the playback function on the kindle because now no matter where I'm at I can read and relax. (It's been really cool since my wife bought me a hammock). |
