Replying to Skiing with music and etiquette

Hello all,

I am curious to find some opinions on a certain matter. Here's an example: You are skiing with one or more friends, you are NOT listening to music but your other friend(s) are. As a result of their music, they cannot hear you and thus, cannot engage in conversation during lift rides and during each run itself.

TO ME, not only does doing so display poor lift riding and skiing etiquette, but it is  also a very anti-social way of skiing. Why not just ski by yourself if your gonna ignore your friends and listen to music? it is rude and disrespectful to be skiing with music blasting while being unable to communicate with your friends during the course of the day.

Granted, i understand some people like to get "pumped up" and "stoked" when they ski, and i agree, but i also think there is a time and place for that (skiing alone) not skiing with friends.

Again this is all my opinion, but I'd like to hear some of yours

thank you
