In my case it's mostly just my timing, I do a lot of steeming in the morning and evening (I count it as work so I'm working alongside the stuff I'm usually working on ^_^;) and in the evening especially it's really quiet so I don't want to play video (even though I only need to play it at very low volume as my hearing is pretty good) and the youngest child has my (slowly dying) headphones at the moment as he doesn't have speakers for his computer yet XD

Just do whatever it is you enjoy doing, this is supposed to be fun ;D
