I try to listen to my music and listen to the radio as much as I can. - At work, on the train, at home.
I still am not even coming close to know my collection as much as I would like to.

Interesting question. I would say somewhere between 5 and 10 hours a week. I know what you feel though about knowing your collection. I have a very small collection, but it never feels like I have a handle on it.

Maybe 5-10 hours. That's a lot of time.

When I'm mostly working from home, 10+ hours/wk. Otherwise, 5-10 hours/wk probably, not counting dancing.

I've been listening to more outsite of my collection lately. Our local jazz station, outside of specialty programs, is pretty square ... they definitely play the "approved" list. I listen to live jazz once a week which is awesome, nothing better than that.
