Yeah, I agree with you.

But I can't help wonder about Urban's previous point that "you'd might as well list breathing" -- because to me, my "interest" in music goes well beyond an involuntarily bodily function.

Just as if I were listing "oil painting" or "the zodiac" as an interest, I would want people to realize that "music" to me is something studied, read about, and spent time with, beyond casual listening. The way music is marketed now, it's hard to imagine there are that many people treating the topic as seriously as we on MB do.
