According to a recent Cricket Wireless national survey[1], more than half (55 percent) of Americans find it unacceptable to begin playing holiday themed music prior to Thanksgiving. Millennials are the only generation who report they are in the spirit for pre-Thanksgiving holiday jams, with 60 percent of those surveyed (age 18-29) saying it is okay to play holiday music before Thanksgiving.
In fact, the older you are, the more likely you are to find it unacceptable to begin the music playing festivities before Thanksgiving According to the survey:
- 71% of 65+ do NOT believe it's okay to play holiday themed music prior to Thanksgiving
- 63% of 45-64 year-olds find it unacceptable
- 55% of 30-44 year-olds find it unacceptable
- 40% of 18-29 year-olds find it unacceptable
Whether you are ready for holiday music today, or only after polishing off the last of the turkey fix in's, listening to music on a mobile device is becoming more popular. Services like Muve Music from Cricket Wireless give music lovers the ability to download their favorite new and classic holiday tunes from just about anywhere to enjoy at home, when visiting family, and in between. However, this season, for the early holiday music enthusiasts, it may be safest to keep the holiday tunes restricted to the headphones until the more universally acceptable playing period after Thanksgiving.
