Is 80,000 minutes a lot? It seems like a lot. I basically spent 1/6 of the year listening to music. - ThreadSky

A 1/6 of a year would be a 1/6 of a day too. 4 hrs a day.
Many people have music on all day at work.
I hope I didn't ruin anything going on.

There are 525,600 minutes in a year so 80,000 seems a fair amount spent listening to music.

It’s a fine number and way above what many of my family members showed for a total. But I’ve seen over 109K (okay, that was me), and I’m only that high because I’m never listening to podcasts. It’s just a matter of preference.

It's cheaper than Spotify. It's music centric. With super high quality versus Spotify. And the music catalog is as good, if not better. Spotify seems to be more focused on podcasts and the like.
