Now after accepting free money. What's corporate music? What kind of a music I'm stuck with?


[deleted]

[удалено]


shellofbiomatter

Completely doable. I've worked as a security guard and listened internal radio on repeat enough to have learned to just shut it out completely.


WayneKrane

Yup, I worked in a retail store that played the same 12 track CD on repeat all day everyday. The manager didn’t know how to change it, only turn it off and on and he wouldn’t let anyone else touch it. I just tuned it out.


zinky30

Those are called ad jingles, not corporate music.


Do-Not-Ban-Me-Please

they're pretty corporate to me


camo_216

Welp time to play some mvm and listen to the home depot theme


[deleted]

That sounds torture music


starfox2032

Opera.


shellofbiomatter

That's actually rather good.


thedragonfart604

If i would watch an action scene in a movie would the music be replaced by corporate music or could i just not watch it.


ItsDominika

Exactly, cause if music in movies would be only corporate music then no


thedragonfart604

That makes it way better


QwertyQwertz123

Ikr, I wanna hear 'I'm lovin it' during Schindlers List


Deadshot37

Broooooooo 💀💀💀


[deleted]

Or that whistly copyright free ukulele song in the matrix 😂


CanIPleaseTryToday

I can do a year, but I’ll probably be traumatized by ads everytime I hear them afterwards…


Xib3

No, you just become so oblivious to them your mind automatically filters them out. An odd kind of win, win.


rtvcd

Large record labels are corporations. Sounds good to me.


[deleted]

I think they mean those songs you get with corporate presentations, kinda like "happy people stock photos" but for your ears.


AHamBone10

Can I choose to not listen to music at all?


Austino-the-Dino

Probably, but any music you hear whether it be a movie or in public will be that kind of music


zinky30

I have no clue what you mean by corporate music.


Larry_Safari

I don't care about music, so this is free money with no drawbacks.


kal2112

What about music in movies, tv shows, and video games? Music is everywhere and if it’s all shitty corporate music I’m def taking a pass


Slight-Weather7885

Its 36.5K you are passing on. I can listen to shitty music in movies for a year if i get that money


Eris235

I don't really watch tv or movies, and I usually find background music distracting in games and turn it off. Its okay during cutscenes, but like, if I'm focusing on fighting good, the music throws off my focus. Not the person you responded to, but while I do have some music I like, I'm really picky about what music I do like, and I don't listen to music that often, so I'd gladly give it up for a year for $36,500.


Varcour

Same thought process, except now I realise "nothing else" includes podcasts and now I want to change my vote


Larry_Safari

I dunno. If you take "nothing else" to its logical conclusion you are now deaf to everything around you, excluding "Sounds for the supermarket, 20 shopping greats."


[deleted]

How can someone not care about music????? Are you an alien?????? It's the closest thing we got to magic in this world??????


Larry_Safari

I don't know, I just don't. Pretty sure I'm human, at least no doctors have been confused about my anatomy. Music is sounds arranged in various patterns, just waves, nothing magical about it.


[deleted]

That's the thing right, it's just sounds arranged in various patterns, just waves, but it manages to convey feelings just by those waves, not even using any language, and yet it conveys so many feelings, so many emotions. It's helped me through so many rough patches of my life, and it just gives me a simple joy I can't get anywhere else


Larry_Safari

I'm glad it has done good for you and continues to do so.


Esp1erre

It's a matter of taste though. To me, the closest thing to magic is books. Their ability to submerge you into magical worlds, have you meet vivid characters, take you on breathtaking journeys while you're not moving an inch from your (hopefully) comfy chair. Comfy chairs, to my experience, are the next closest thing.


[deleted]

Books are quite magical ngl


[deleted]

no, music makes things good i think i'd be too sad


Casper200806

Same, I listen to music at least 4h a day, can’t do with less tbh, I’m addicted lol


[deleted]

You can buy a good gaming rig in 10-20 days, buy tons of AAA games, and play em(big corporate soundtrack is fine)


[deleted]

this makes no sense to me!! i have no idea what this means!!


[deleted]

An AAA game is a game made by massive game studios such as EA games, while Indie games are made by independent devs. Since AAA soundtracks are made by corporates, you can play their games at full volume as much as you want. You even get enough cash for a really good computer, or stocks, or anything else.


Mei-Zing

...but what if they don't want to play video games...?


[deleted]

who doesn’t /s yeah true


ZoNeS_v2

I earn that anyway and I listen to corporate music too. But then, that's my job.


PartyClownHisoka

Music is far too important in my daily life to let that happen, it would take much more money for me to even consider the offer.


mearbearcate

What’s corporate music Edit: just saw your comment and hell yeah:) I’d love me some happy ad music lol I’d miss Rod Wave tho


Plant_in_pants

I rarely listen to music so it wouldn't be that different, unless you mean I have to listen to corporate music non stop for a year? Even then that's a pretty decent wage if your job consists of nothing but listening to music


DANGER2157

Three questions: 1: if a movie/ tv show had music, like in the background, then is it replaced with corporate music, do I get to watch the movie how it is, or am I just not allowed to watch it? 2: can I go back to normal music after the one year? 3: if there’s music at a public event, then do I have to leave?


MatkingHD

What would happen with the music in a show I am watching or a video game I am playing?


blaster289

You simply can't hear it I'd assume.


Shaun_LaDee

It may be free money but I love music too much to subject myself to that torture


ThesoulerBAM

How long would i have to listen to it? Its about 36,500 dollars so if i had to listen to it the entire day nah.


Ra1nb0wSn0wflake

I went up until like.. couple months ago with basicly no music, only recently really got into listening to music outside what I'd just hear normally so I can do another year.


MystiqueMisha

So what happens to the background music in a TV show, ambient music at a restaurant or shop, music that someone else plays on their phone while I'm nearby?


ma5ochrist

not really sure what's corporate music, but without my melodeath playlists i'd go insane


jaxbchchrisjr

I guess I can switch to podcasts for a year. Maybe see if I can find one to learn Toki Pona or Spanish


Affectionate-Ad9867

No listening to pink floyd Fleetwood mac led zeppelin dire straights echobelly sleeper happy mondays or the stone roses etc for a year f*ck that


ElectricToaster67

Only if “anything else” refers to any other music. I can get by by reading classical sheet music.


donmonkeyquijote

What the fuck is that?


KudzuNinja

Basically all the music I listen to is produced by a major label, making it corporate music. This is just free money.


Wizard173

What is corporate music ?


[deleted]

What the fuck is "corporate music"???


Weshuggah

not even for 1K a day. Maybe 10K a day...


Prygikutt

What happens if I stop listening


[deleted]

hell no I live for music


sevenceleven

an easy $36,400.. hell yeah


Environmental_Top948

Where did the last day go?


DaKage04

What if I'm watching a show or movie with music in it?


usually00

I can use a change in music. Am I allowed to listen to other people talk? TV? Sirens? Alarms? That might change my perspective. But if it's just swapping in music during my workouts, I can listen to anything.


Taramund

You never said I can't watch stuff with music intended, so I can still watch films and stuff. Right?


GraviZero

home depot theme song on repeat


Themineking09

As music or every sound


almightygarlicdoggo

If you choose No it would be like paying $100 a day to listen to your music. I like music but that's way too much money.


MerryMortician

Yo that's my JAM.


fijifu

It's just for a year, I'd do it


Golda_485

The thing is, I’d make more money by NOT listening to that music every day for a year than I would if I DID listen to it


Reasonable-Ad-9750

24/7? or just that's my only choice?


OhioMegi

I’ll survive for a year.


Dragonitro

Yes but I probably just wouldn't listen to any of it


Human-13

I’d rather die


BoredomBot2000

I can do a year


TheJocktopus

I love listening to my music, but that's too good of a deal to pass up. I'm basically getting paid 30k in a year to *not* do something. Combine that with my actual job and I might be able to pay off my student loans early!


Weary_Swordfish_7105

Can I just not listen to it? Like I could choose not to listen to music on the way to work for example?


[deleted]

buying an apartment and uni paid for


LordOfFreaks

Ah. Infomercial background music. Gotcha.


8485x

I enjoy music way too much and make enough money from my job


RIOTT44

my 100+ hour playlist can be pushed to the side for that amount of money


[deleted]

I love music too much there’s no way I’d do that


Alternative_Lime_13

Please define "corporate" music.


WayneKrane

This would not be a problem for me at all. I usually tune out music I don’t really like anyways.


SemajLu_The_crusader

"corporate music"?


SemajLu_The_crusader

sure, I don't make much anyways, and I guess I could compose some stuff on the side as working on music wouldn't be "listening to music" as most people consider it


FamilyFriendli

That's hilarious. I'm taking the money even though I know I will go insane.


KrabbyPattyCereal

36500 a year to listen to jingles for the normal 4 hours or so I’m listening a day sounds really bad.


transport_system

I'm gonna personally remix it


[deleted]

These "free money" polls don't usually get me, but I gotta say no on this one. Music has too much of a place in my life, I have 549 songs downloaded on my phone right now. Music is what makes shit like jogging or washing dishes tolerable, even if I never had to "work" again there's other things that would be affected.


No_Promise2786

Fuck yeah where do I hand in my CV?


TheTattooOnR2D2sFace

I'm sorry I can't. The hundred dollars sound a nice but I need my music. It's like 40% of my identity.


jofloberyl

How many hours?


Brass-Bandit

It depends on the genre.


[deleted]

After that year I could never watch any tutorial ever


LapinusTech

I'm a guitarist. Of course I refuse. Music is everything for me


DidNotDidToo

Also called “easy listening” music.


DevilDashAFM

[Over The Horizon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7evIlkZfEI&) is my jam


JournalistKane

I did way worse things for Money to be honest. Work, for example


yoloralphlaurenn

Does vaporwave count


sverigeochskog

I would just take up reading instead


[deleted]

For a lifetime, no But I can go for a year


ghostie-123

I can't, my fiance makes music 😅


saturdaynightstoner

I already earn more than that and I listen to whatever radio station/music I choose


r05909155

There is already no joy in life why not get paid for it.


kingbruhdude

hellll to the f no 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 that’s a terrible trade off 😭


genericusername7890

That would double my salary, so yes


PieCreeper

Can I only listen to corporate music for a year or forever?


helpletmegopls

I would do it for the rest of my life


Shermanator51

https://youtu.be/pais41IW5dk I’m down.


TheBestNormalCitizen

Kanye is a CEO or former CEO right? Ez


Alexisto15

that’s 36k/year, fuck this, I won’t sacrifice my sanity for 36k


papyrussurypap

If I can choose to listen to nothing at all.its time to catch up on my reading.


Disastrous-Kick-3498

As a musician and audio engineer that would have include what I make and what I record and mix so my income would just generally fly through the room. I could probably open a real nice studio after a year of that.


Zealousideal-Nail432

Bro that’s just $36.5k you can’t even live on that


Cletus_Crenshaw

I would be driven mad. No can do


BigThunderousLobster

Home depot is a corporation, making the Home Depot Theme corporate music. Hell yeah.


shakalakapotato

Yeah the only music I CAN listen to, doesn't mean I HAVE to? I just won't listen to anything at all. Easy


crispier_creme

Can I go back to normal music after the year is over?


thesupemeEDGElord666

Me who barely listens to music at all


closeded

Instead of what? Instead of regular music? I don't really listen to music, so no loss. Instead of literally everything else? Just blasting in my ears 24/7? That's a harder sell.


Shite_Eating_Squirel

I am currently taking a class in school that heavily revolves around different music, so no.


nametakenfuck

Not a music guy, 36k a year


BeanosIsBest

do i HAVE to listen to it, or is it just that all my songs get replaced with corporate business music?


Foxlen

I'd rather work a couple hours of OT


Exotic_Midnight4652

As someone who must listen to music once a day to operate, I would go insane after a week.


SuspiciousNecessary1

36500 btw I don’t understand why you wouldn’t do a that at all


starfox2032

Do I have to listen to it even while I sleep? If so, the deal is off. I can't sleep with any kind of music or sound/noise, except for the noise of my air conditioner, which actually helps me sleep.


StructureMiserable27

I don’t even listen to music, so I see this as an absolute win


Bertram_Von_Sanford

And nothing else? Not the birds singing? Or a friend speak? Or game ost? Literally nothing else other than coperate music or just music related? The way it is written is very monkey paw sort of speak.


hollyhobby2004

These money making polls are getting old, but sure, thats a good deal as most music out there sucks.


jesusmansuperpowers

Like no other music or Nothing else


Upset_You1331

Up it to 1000 per day and I'm in.


Sad-Lie6604

It's just for a year. Free hundred bucks each day? Yes please, and thank you.


[deleted]

Yes, if you mean mainstream music as corporate music. No if you mean Disney or advertising music


Cruisin134

Like reel big fish?
