How many hours weekly do you listen to your system

It seemed that back in the 60's and 70's more time was spent listening to music.Today with video games, cable TV ,computers and forums like this one less time is set aside for listening.
Our equipment costs much more then it did back then and hopefully it sounds better.Why then dont we listen more.

Maybe 8-10 hours a week. I listen to classical FM in the mornings monday through friday for about an hour or so each day. And another 4 or 5 hours mostly on weekends. I'm getting back into enjoying more listening since I've recently bought some JM Lab speakers with a fabulous midrange. A newer CD/SACD player is on the horizon too!

Typically 1.5 hours a weeknight. And up to three hours on Saturday and Sunday. So about 10 to 15 hours a week. This will increase a little if I ever retire...

I usually critically listen to at least 1 cd per night Mon-Thursday. On Sat-Sun I will listen for around 2 hours per day so I guess the total is 8-10 hours per week. However, my system or some other system in the house is pretty much always on streaming background music from my digital music library.
