I'd like to see more studies related to increased attentiveness while listening to music. All through high school I played tetris on my calculator during class. I swear I could absorb more information while playing tetris than while not playing tetris. The only explanation I could ever imagine is that a small part of my mind was tied up thinking about the game, so I was less prone to day dream while playing. However, I had played so much that I didn't really have to think about it any more, so enough of my brain was free to process what the teacher was saying. This study indicates that something similar is going on while listening to music. I think this could be a powerful discovery.
