Written mediation exercise: MUSIC IN THE EU

SUGGESTED ANSWER:

The graphics show how people in the EU listen to music and when they do it. Mobile phones are the main device, used by almost three quarters, while just over half prefer computers or tablets. About a third listen through the radio, and less than a fifth use TV. Vinyl use is insignificant.

The second chart shows that around 80 % listen while commuting, and nearly two thirds at home. One out of four listen when working, while fewer do so when exercising or sleeping.

Overall, music is mainly digital and linked to daily activities.

 

*This was a mistake: the graphics say 40% so it should’t be “one out of four” but “four out of ten”
