99% I listen to my mp3 collection, very rarely I will listen to radio.

I like a playlist but I'm normally too lazy to do one. I typically will have a certain 'mood' of music I into, and will curate as my entire collection plays.

>3) Do you listen to whole albums often? Mostly new or older?

No. In the past 10 years I've probably listened to five full albums.

>4) How do you discover new music?

TV, radio, movies, music playing around me, occasionally will go researching through youtube or amazon.

I listen either my computer or car speakers. I don't currently own a stereo though once I finally move to somewhere more permanent I will get one.

>any other relevant comments/questions welcome

It's funny, I was just recently thinking about my relationship to music and how it's changed. I used to be a lot more into it than I am now, and I think it's because I view it more like art than something personal. Like, I love and appreciate it, but it's a separate entity that flows without input or inclination from me.
