    Gyms and quiet

    I understand the music in most of the gym, but I truly don't get it in the area with the cardio machines. People doing aerobics on these machines are either watching and listening to whatever is on the individual video at each machine, or they're listening to their iPod/CD player, or, like me, THEY'RE TRYING TO READ!!!! The last thing any of these people needs is extraneous music. Why doesn't anybody in gym management seem to get that?
