    I only got 58 out of 100, which I feel will be noticeably low around here. :shrug:

    Some of the ones that I copped to that made me cringe just a little were...
    ...not dating someone because he had bad taste in music.
    ...bought every version of a single just to have all the b-sides.
    ...spent hours making sure your entire mp3 library had consistent metadata.

    Some of the choices were absolutely perfect for this forum. Anger over the loudness war!

    I admit to buying tube amps, spending way too much on vinyl, spent hours alphabetizing stuff.

    Wished I could say 'yes' to a couple, like having a college radio show, been to Glastonbury...

    Guess I just like music...

    'believed that other people are too dumb to get the music you enjoy?'

    I'm not sure I'd want to score very high on this quiz.

    34. To score very low on that test, you'd have to care not at all about music

    Well, I got a 41-"You’re a major music nerd, and most people in your life consider you to be an expert. You’re very committed, but there’s some lines you don’t cross."

    In other words I have an illness that may someday require outpatient treatment, at the most. I can live with that (and do).

    Of course the methodology is wrong because you should get an automatic +5 on the quiz if you hang out here. :D

    I don't spend any time making sure my mp3 library has consistent metadata. I don't have an mp3 library. I have a flac library. And I do spend too much time fussing over metadata. But I'm going to give myself a free pass on that question cause I'm kinda particular about not having an mp3 library.

    I dodged a bullet there. :D

    I got 24
    That analysis is sooo wrong. Like I have a well-rounded life. :shake: :D
    I can claim to have an eclectic music collection. Which could put me in the well-rounded category. :D

    They also missed including a question about whether you have an eclectic music collection.
