background music is just unnecessary noise
If you are doing something else, then you can't truly enjoy music as it's supposed to be enjoyed. Sometimes just attention isn't enough and you have to read an analysis or listen repeatedly. Music takes as much concentration and focus as proving a math theory or solving a hard differential equation problem, it is a mental exercise, and if you do not like that, you do not genuinely like music. Or you like it as much as pop listeners like their pop slop, a.k.a. you are a cattle.

You think of it this way because you're fucking stupid and things take more effort for you than for other people. You know that right?

Unless it is supposed to be enjoyed as background music.

Music has mostly been communal...whether for religion or festive stuff. Not eggheads.
That said, this has little to do with background music. I'm not entirely disagreeing with you. Background music is a modern phenomenon of recorded music.

i dont have enough hours in the day to sit and just listen to music, I have a job, and even worse I have aspirations to be a musician. I get a good 4 to 5 hours of music listening on a good day and yes its while I shitpost or browse, or even write/read. When you've heard an album 50 times yes you still get a lot out of hearing it in the background, if its a really good album I might sit there and focus on it the first time but I find maybe one of those a year

i sure hope you're a trained musician OP because truthfully you're not even hearing music until you understand it on that level, I hear so much more because I understand it on every level

True, I pray I'll never have to be forced to be in a loud music place.

Why don't you just analyse it yourself instead of getting someone else to do it for you, brainlet?
