Personally, I can't listen to music as background activity. It interferes with anything I do as foreground activity, so I need to have silence. I listen to music maybe once a month, and then only songs who have some interesting text, authors like Suzanne Vega, or Weird Al... else it bores me.
But I'm probably not typical
