My personal opinion is that they are very annoying, which is why i played mine, to simply prove that point...
I'm almost always listening to music, but i have no need to make everyone know that fact, or force them to see it..
Just think about it, it was only a couple people that were doing it, imagine if it was more? 5, 10, or more people doing the same thing?
Would get old real fast, right? look how fast just 3-4 people created this issue, now there's a big todo about it all..
I mean, if you're listening to a song, and want to tell people and/or discuss it, sure, i get that.. "man, i'm listeing to <yadda> <yadda> and it sure does bring me back..."
But to have it display just for the sake of having it display? no point, not in my opinion anyway.
