Default Do you fly to music?

We have a plug that we use for our MP3 players. During take off and
departure I have an "iso" switch such that the kids and wife can hear
the music and I hear ATC. In cruise I switch it back if there is not
much ATC activity. Using MP3s is MUCH easier than CDs because they are
so much smaller. My kids always have their MP3s in their pockets anyway
and my wife and I always have our PDAs (which make good MP3 players
too).

Do any of you listen to music while flying? If so, do you listen
yourself, or do passengers listen, or do you all listen? Is there any
regulatory obstacle to this? (Some aircraft are apparently equipped
for it, so it must be allowed.)

I don't listen to music when driving because it distracts me, which is
hazardous, and I'd probably be the same way when flying. However, I
suppose passengers might like music.
