- Stormbringer 16y ago"Who hates music?" The iTunes team.
- retroafroman 16y agoI thought this was an interesting label to put on people as well. It reminded me of people I know that are the antithesis of "music lovers"-where a music lover looks for what is new and cool, trying to know about new music others haven't heard yet, a music hater has a narrow view, only listening to what they know they will like, deliberately not seeking out or listening to music recommended to them. It may not be accurate, but in a way it is "music hating".
- sid0 16y agoI understood that as people hating certain kinds of music. Lots of people don't like electronic music, for instance.
- sudont 16y agoI knew a couple of older, non-traditional Hmong students at my university who simply didn't listen to music. Didn't have a favorite style, didn't ever listen to music while they worked, if a radio was on and they were alone, they'd turn it off. It must have been a combination of age and culture, because all the other Hmong students I knew (we had a large Hmong student population) who were my age were really into music.
