Can you listen to music and read a book at the same time?

No problem with that. The only thing that makes reading impossible for me would be constant interruptions.

Maybe but I'd prefer relative silence.

I can, but I prefer not to.

Yes I can! Especially when the book and music style kind of match. One enhances the other.

Nope. I'm distracted very easily. I can't even post long messages here with the TV volume up. I need complete silence.

Not really. I do sometimes read when the music, or the TV, is playing, but it becomes merely background noise while trying to read.

Yes - depending on the kind. Any music I have, I could easily read and listen to but some of the music my neighbours play - not so much - heavy metal and rap and hip hop.

I'm usually listening to my iPod when I read.

I can, yes. But the only time I ever do it is when what I'm reading's interesting enough to hold my attention by itself.

I have no problem with it. I can listen to TV and read too.
