Do you listen to music on the kindle while reading?
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. Last edited by demoric; 07-15-2009 at 12:27 PM. |

Bad choices! What if you don't, but it is not because it is annoying?! I just don't happen to do it.

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 |

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.

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.
