[quote=Anonymous]In the last couple years, I've started asking people listening to music or other audio in public without headphones to turn it down. I am very polite when I do it ("Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you but your music is a bit loud. Would you mind turning it down?") and don't act angry with people. Almost every single time I've done this, the person has turned their music down, and in most cases they've simply turned it off (or in a couple cases where I was in a coffee shop, gone outside). I can only think of one time where a person flatly, and rudely, refused. That was a bit awkward but even in that case I knew I'd been polite and was in the right so I didn't regret it. So that's my advice: just ask. Maybe no one has ever asked these people to adjust their behavior to accommodate others, so they figure, why not.[/quote]
