Sometimes I will listen to the MP3 songs when I am on the way to work or go home. I enjoy it. However, I have to turn up the volume so that I can listen to the songs clearly. I start to think that it is not so good for my hearing. Therefore, I haven't listened to the music in these days.

i do the same thing everyday while travelling.you can keep medium volume so that you can even hear a little of outside noise(sometimes they are important). [amitnaik]
You are right. But I think the music won't be so nice when the volume isn't loud enoughwink [youless]
I do the same thing. I listen to the music when I am traveling to work and I am at work. Especially if I'm doing paper works. It makes me relax and free from stress. It makes me think clearly. I think all you need to do so that your hearing wouldn't be affected, try to rest your ears from earphones most often. You can also listen to music without using your earpiece. :) [joyce423]
That's so nice that you can listen to the music when you are workinglol [youless]
You are right - turning up the volume isn't good for your hearing - I'm feeling the effects of that 20 years after blasting my ears to bits, on a daily basis, with music from my Walkman. (Yeah, I know - I'm ancient!! ha ha ha ha) Now, not only do I always have to crank the volume on my MP3 player, but if there is any kind of noise in the background when someone is speaking to me on a cell phone, it's very annoying since I can't hear them properly. The volume on my cell phone and also all of the phones in my house is turned up high and, depending on what else is going on in the room that I happen to be in at the time (eg. the dishwasher, dryer, TV, etc.), sometimes I need to make sure that I am looking right at whoever is speaking to me to make sure I can fully understand what they are saying. That's pretty bad for only being 41 yrs old but I guess I shouldn't be surprised since I totally abused my hearing listening to loud music through earphones and going to concerts. [DarkHairedNurse]
In the past it was already good enough to have a walkmanhappy [youless]
Yes, of course! music's been part of my life.. it adds color to my boring, mundane life.. i always turn my ipod on and listen to my favorite tracks.. i usually turn the volume down when crossing the street or walking in the street so i can still hear what's happening around me.. but there are times that i skip listening to my iPod as it isn't good for my hearing.. [gracie04]
I think music is important for everybody. [youless]
i always listen to music when i'm going on my way somewhere. i listen to it in the morning while i am going on my morning walk with my dog. if i leave the house and am going to the store, doctors or just where ever i will bring my ipod and listen to it while i'm there or on my way there. i like having it while i am at the store or something. it's nice to be able to drown out everyone around you and just be in your own world. thats how i am.. i pay attention to whats going on around me still but it's like i don't see the other people either. it helps me to not have anxiety while i'm out too. [sameroad]
I can see that music is so important for youhappy [youless]
happyI listen to mp3 on the way,before i have a car and went to work by bike, i like to listen mp3(ipod)on the way,and sometimes i would sing following the songs in Mp3, it maybe not safe to listen mp3 when on bicyle,but i think it gives me fun and enjoy the time.Now i drive to work, and i still have the habit,open the cd and listen the music when driving,i used to turn the sounds loundly,which makes me feel high lol.good music! [sinokirin]
Then please be careful when you drive the carhappy [youless]
I like listening to music too. We listen to music when we travel in the car on the way to work, to go home or to go to different places. My husband is a musician so he is always listening to music. I also listen to music at work but I play it on my laptop, I don't like using earphones too much because they can get uncomfortable if you wear them for a long period of time. [silverglint]
That's super that your husband is a musicianhappy [youless]
yes,my husband and my son like music, when we drive the car,they listen music, i don't like very loud voice.but they like it very much. [wodekonghuapen]
I think when your son grows up, he will like louder musiclol [youless]
i guess we all listen to music wherever we are but i agree that you should somehow learn and train your ears to listen to it just audibly but not to loud because it might somehow damage our hearing, especially if we are using a headphone or an earphone. just be careful. we are not getting any younger. [tigerdragon]
You are right. [youless]
Well not much. I am always on the go and sometimes earphones gets tangled up so it's kind of inconvenient at least for me personally. I also need to be aware of my surroundings especially outside the house as there are cases of accidents because of people being unable to hear because they're listening to music while walking. That proves it's a little dangerous. I only listen to music at home and at the comfort of my room. That's why there's really not much use of mp3 players for me because i don't use it much. [modstar]
My dad disagrees to listen to the music on the way. As he says it's quite dangerous because you can't hear other sound. [youless]
Hello friend, I do like it when I am on my way somewhere and the radio or the MP3 player is switched on. I like music and I am happy to listen to it any time. I would advice you not to use the ear plugs when the volume is high because that can potentially hamper your hearing ability in the long run. [jshekhar]
You are right. But it may bother others if I don't use the ear plugs. [youless]
Yes,i always listen music with my walkman on my way to somewhere,that can let me have a easy feeling,i can get the place while i listen the music,the time pass quickly.Well,i know the more use walkman is bad for ear,so everytime i don't listen it to long. [shirley183]
You are right. But it may bother others if I don't use the ear plugs. [youless]
I used to listen music mostly when i am traveling. I love to listen to music mainly in this time . But when i am walking , i will never do that. I don't think that's nice as far as i am concerned. Better time to listen to music is when you are at home, or traveling in vehicle or when you are sitting relaxed anywhere. [mohamedthoufeeq]
Thanks for your response. [youless]
Hi, Music have been part of our lives already. I do love music, in fact i also carry my ipod with me, i usually listen to music before going to work, its helps me feel more relax and does feel good. Also a way to relieve stress, whenever i feel tired i just put on my ipod and listen some music on it. [mhil84]
Ipod is so popularlol [youless]
yes, i often to listen to the song while traveling, especially for long distance. this is making my travel more enjoy. [zanglieft]
Thanks for your response. [youless]
not very much.I don't like listening music on my way bucause it is so noisy. most of time I listen to some curriculas on my way and I can murmur it myself.I can learn lots in this way.maybe you can try it.best wishes! [peace001]
OK, I will try itwink [youless]
I am opposed to music on the road,although this will give their own exciting,happy but very dangerous at that time,on-street car there are so many,life is impoetant,we did not appreciate the roadside scenery and interesting things BUT THAT voice amplification more oh, no,that would be the heart of our vision and will not be very good. So you best to be corrected,ha [huihong168117]
It is always good to be much more careful when you are driving. [youless]
I prefer to listen a music on the radio or computer. I don't want to have problem with my ears. Listening with ipod or mp3 can cause damage to our hearing when the volume is to loud. I don't want that to happen when my hearing so I'm avoid listening to Ipod or mp3. [agv0419]
Good for youhappy [youless]
Hi, youless! I usually will listen to music when I am driving of when I am riding in the car with someone. My son loves listening to music. When he can't hear a song playing on the radio, he will tell his daddy to turn it up because he can't hear. And when I am home, I like to put my walkman on when I am just napping or relaxing. I don't have an MP3 player. I would love to have one of these. I know many people that have one. I would love one too.happy [cream97]
It seems that you listen to the music most of the timehappy [youless]
Listening to music also is good for depression or stress at everyday life. I do listen always when i feel mad about anything or anyone that turns down me, for me to forget bad things they done to me. [ulqu1orra]
In fact sometimes when I am very sad, I will shed tears when I listen to the sad song. Because it moves my heart. [youless]
Hey i'm just like you...I listen to my ipod like ALL THE TIMe whenever i go to school and back from school. Well it's because my school is situated FAR AWAY from home and i have to take this bus ride that lasts for about 1 hour + waiting time and so i get SOOOO friggin bored sometimes that i won't be able to last the whole ride without my ipod or if it runs out of batt, my psp..hehe ^_^ [mira91]
The youngs like listen to the music on the wayhappy [youless]
I am in Korea now .Every time I get on the bus or subway ,it is nomal for you to find out that most of the Koreans listen to music by mp3.Lately,I have accustomed the habit of listening to music when I am on the way. [specific]
I learn something new about Korea from youhappy [youless]
I try to listen to music as much as possible. I turn the volume up as high as I possibly can, and I'm sure it's not the best for my health either. But music has a calming effect on me that few other things hold. [David816]
Thanks for your response. [youless]
I practically do this everyday.Sometimes before going to sleep.I do this to divert my attention coz sometimes it makes me uncomfortable to have a lot of people around specially if you are commuting.I turn my volume up to the middle so I won't have earache,I experienced it a month ago so I had to stop listening to my music for a while.Music is very good,it can heal and relax you.Just don't overdo it. [angel_rain]
You are righthappy [youless]
Oh yea.Always.Music while traveling and also during work.So it is always with me and I cant be without music in my ears. [karthik_404]
Not at all.In fact it is motivating.I get stuff done better with music in my ears. [karthik_404]
I pretty much always listen to music on the way to anywhere I go in my truck. I keep the buttons tuned to the type of music I like so that when on station gets out of range I just need to press a single button and my type of music is back on. [jer31558]
Life will be easier with musichappy [youless]
I prefer listening to music while I commute from University to our house. My school is an hour away from home, and turning the music up keeps me away. And I don't enjoy waking up in a PUV, only to find out I've missed my stop and I have to ride another PUV back. I only dislike how partially deaf I've become, and I have to turn the music up so load that everyone can hear it. [chance2691]
You can enjoy a long time music on the wayhappy [youless]
The only time I listen to music is when I am at the gym and when I am in the car. I am not one for listening to music when I am at home or on the computer. Thanks happy Zelo happy [zeloguy]
Yes I find it distracting and trying to find the RIGHT kind of music when working is more of a pain then working in silence... one of the reasons I like to work at night. Thanks happy Zelo happy [zeloguy]
i dont have my mp3 but ill turn my radio on to hear some music before going to work... [jheLaichie]
It works the samehappy [youless]
I always listen the music while I'm on the way to my work. That always make me happy all the way, and when you just arrive to your work, you can smile to everybody. [logonme]
This is nicehappy [youless]
i definitely listen to music when going to work or going back home. i drive to work so i'm always listening to the radio or cd. music helps keep my mind off the traffic jam and also the crazy drivers on the road haha! wink [kevsgirlalways]
Then please be careful when you are driving. [youless]
me too. i love listening to music any ways i could. and even at my office i always find time to open my mp3 and listen to my favorite musics... [jheLaichie]
That's so nice that you can listen to MP3 in the officehappy [youless]
There are a lot of people who like listening to MP3 while on their way home or going to work. Maybe it is a relaxation. As for me,I don't like listening to MP3 in my daily life. Scientific researches have shown that listening to MP3 is harmful to our hearing. Our hearning tend to be damaged if we spend too much time listening to MP3. Meanwhile,I think listening to MP3 on the way is unsafe for some peoplle,especially the drivers. Thank you!Have a nice day! [sunflower121]
We shall be careful to it. [youless]
I listen to music no matter what I am doing. My husband and I absolutely love music, and any excuse we can take to listen to music is a good one. We don't drive, so we don't have music in the car, but we have music on headphones we can listen to, and music on our computers that we listen to while working. [danishcanadian]
You are a music fanhappy [youless]
