Simply curious as to what the breakup may be of what people most often listen to.

If you're like me, you don't simply listen to one style, but there is one particular genre that you find yourself listening to the most. Choose that one, thanks.

I listen to folk music. There are many kinds of folk music, ranging from traditional folk, which is Stephen Foster(aka the guy who wrote "Oh Susanna")-esque to 60's folk, also called singer-songwriter folk, which incorporates Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, James Taylor, John Denver, Eric Andersen, Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul, and Mary. I also like pop-folk, which is more what John Denver does along with artists like Don McLean and Simon and Garfunkel. To me, that kind of music is sincere in what it preaches. People do not become folk artists for the culture of music, but to preach a honest and very real message to the world.

I despise anything hard, because it's hard for the sake of being hard, not for the sake of actually making good music. Plus... it just doesn't sound good. I can handle some soft rock, but not much.

I listen to way too many diffrent genres to choose just one. But in general, R&B/Hip Hip and Rock.

You guys think I ought to add a poll? There would only be 20 styles to choose from, and even if I grouped them together like this: ie. Metal/Nu-Metal/Progresive Metal/Death Metal/Black Metal, it would be difficult, I think...

I generally listen to rock, and everything that is considered any type of rock. Usually I'll listen to just about anything that sounds good to me, but if I had to pick one genre, then it would be rock.

No, don't add a poll.

My favourite genres include:
Metal (death, doom, black, industrial, folk, symphonic, post-black, progressive, thrash, etc.)
Industrial
Folk (Middle Eastern, East Asian, South American, medieval European, Scandinavian, etc.)
Classical
Progressive rock
Post-rock
Avant garde (not really a genre, but I value originality highly and listen to a lot of music that can't be put into existing genres)

I listen to lots of other stuff, but these are (some of) the genres I commonly listen to.

Rock, I suppose. Not normally the heavy stuff, but I'll generally listen to any of it.

No, I don't know all the little 'sub-categories', and don't care. It's all music to me.

I listen to rock and metal mostly, but throw in some occational electronica and classical for great justice. I can't really stand country and hip hop.
