What do you do when you listen to music?

An Audiophile friend of mine surprised me when he said he listens to music for 2-3 hours per day.
And when he says "Listen" he means that he actively listens; just sits and listens.

Does not read, does not thumb through magazines... Just listens in the "sweet spot" in his living room and becomes immersed in the music.

I NEVER do that. But then I am not an Audiophile (yet).

The responses to my question have been fascinating. Thanks!
It makes me wonder if having a high end system is so good, so real, that it jumps up and grabs you and holds your attention.

In the few times I have heard really great systems I had no urge to do anything else. Kind of like the way a movie holds my attention.

I suspect that if I had a high-end system it could turn me from a passive into an active listener. Being active makes the experience more satisfying.
