Duff-Man says...while at home I will choose a CD and play that through the proper stereo system. I use my iPod for when I go out for a long walk, or when taking public transit to/from work every day....oh yeah!

90% of the music I listen to is on my iPod on the commute to and from work.

The remaining 10% is at home, from my Mac (iTunes) through my stereo.

At home...

...and at work. Us crazy graphic designers are permitted a little license because of the feverish creative work we do...


But not inbetween, 'cos I'm iPodless at the mo.

Almost every second I'm at home in my room. It's like a sickness....I need music on all the time. :o

My iPod for when I commute to school or anywhere else. Even trips to the mall require my iPod on constantly. Indoors or outdoors, I need my music on.

So places would include the bedroom, car, walk, train rides, jogging, the toilet while dropping an s-bomb...... you name it.

I am also a graphic designer, but since I work in my own home office, I always have iTunes open. I feel that music inspires me more than anything else, so it actually helps me come up with designs quicker. Plus it's interesting to translate something you hear into something you can see.

So I guess most of the time I listen to music at home, followed by my car and whenever I'm waiting -- usually at a hospital, car wash, paying my bills late...

On my iPod while i commute to work an hour each way. I occassionally listen to it while I'm working. At home I listen mostly to the radio streams via iTunes or other select streaming websites.

Can't wait till the iPod has some sort of Satellite service.<big grin>

as often as possible really. on my iPod to and from work on the T, at work on my iPod or a discman, at home on my TiBook or stereo. i'll usually go for a walk along the Charles River or the Harbor at lunch with my iPod too.

Well I guess I'm like Ambrose. And I don't have a tonne of music, although I buy more CDs than any other student that I know, which still isn't a lot. I'll buy more when I graduate and get a job. ;)

I just use playlists. I have Slow Song playlists, several Mellow Song playlists, a Jogging Playlist, Fast Songs, Hip Hop, and several others, all shuffled nicely so I just listen to those songs. And I'm usually on cycles when it comes to my current favourite album, so I just started listening to David Gray's "White Ladder" again, and its like a new album or something, because I still love it so much again! :) It was my favourite album 4 years ago, and for the next 2-3 weeks, I'll be playing that one again and again.

Snow Patrol and Kings of Convenience are two albums that are also being played constantly right now, but K of C will always be played because they're so darn fantastic. :)

I'm almost always listening to music when I work at my computer. I also listen on my iPod when I go to the gym.

Any time I'm in front of my iMac at home, I have iTunes rolling... usually with Country...

Faith Hill
Sara Evans
Alan Jackson
Kenny Chesney
And so on...

In my truck (see profile pic), I have my iPod playing the same.

Nothing like a good "I'm in love with somebody I can't be with" song.

i listen to my tunes at home, work, while working out, and wherever else i can. i listen to my music so much that i'm getting a little tired of my selection, and i have over 20 gigs of music. a lot of times i easily lose my concentration to other distractions so i drown it out with my music. the most irritating thing is that at work there's a dartboard right next to my desk. that combined with the natural noise that occurs in a cubed environment can drive me batty.

Home and School mainly. At home, on my PC or my Powerbook G3, or if I have a certain cd on my Pocket PC, i'll use that.
At school, I use my pocket pc, or iTunes in Web Design.

Ditto, except substitute biking for jogging. :cool:
