Conflicts between music and other interests
View this Thread in Original format
MrJiveBoJingles
I love music, but I also have an equal love for books. As a result, I'm never sure how to spend my money and time. Should I get that new CD or buy that new book? Should I read or listen to music?

In addition, there's a conflict for me between buying new music and trying to get more equipment and software for production.

Finally, there's a conflict within my music hobby between electronic music and classical music, my two favorite categories. I love both of them, but of course I have to split money and listening time between the two.

Any of you guys have similar conflicts?

Luckily, I only read about music, so the problem kinda solves itself.

Its always a balance. My time is spent between obsessively collecting music, producing music, wreck diving and mountain biking and now my first kid is on the way, somethings gotta give!!

I usually tend to favour music when it comes to conflicting interests, because it's probably the most versatile interest I have. I do, however, often prioritise films or books (and occasionally games) over music. I'd hate to be someone who only listened to music.

I like reading a lot too, but there's no doubt that music means more to me. So most time & money is being spend on that. I probably would like movies/photography/fashion more if I had more time/money on my hand. I love to sit back and enjoy a good book while having a nice album on during the weekend mmm <3

I used to have this problem, and then I started DJing. Dance music takes up about 75% of my music interest now almost out of sheer necessity.

I still find time for my other hobbies, and in fact, having them take a back seat to music has actually made me appreciate them more. I also feel more creative when I get back into something like photography or writing since I don't spend much time on them anymore.
