I found this study seemed biased and placed the subjects in unrealistic, disruptive conditions, not really relevant to the problem at hand. Listening to a classical or rock piece for the first time is an intellectually stimulating activity and will be distracting to anyone. People who listen to music while working will rather listen to stuff they're already familiar with, and will set the volume and other conditions in a way that feels most comfortable to them. This study forced alien music at predetermined volumes on the participants. Well, that came out more brutal than intended. I'm also biased: I often listen to drone music while programming, it blocks out exterior sounds and makes me feel like I'm in a spaceship.
