So for music lovers who want to enjoy the sounds of favorite songs and bands for years to come, it makes sense to actually take the time to protect oneself against the trouble that sometimes comes with years and years of loud music. And by being more conscientious about one's hearing, it means more enjoyment along the line, and less worrying about whether or not it will be possible to hear the various different notes when a favorite band or beloved DJ finally manages to come to town. And being responsible now means spending less money later on the costs of dealing with the necessary steps towards taking care of one's hearing, which means more years of great music to come.
