1. Do you listen to music in the background?
No, not really. I get too much into the music and can't concentrate on reading.

2. Do you read online or offline?
Offline. But with actual mangas, it's pretty hard to connect them online <_<

3. Do you read with the lights off (supposedly to enhance your experience)?
Hell no, that's a really bad idea, it will ruin the hell out of you're eyesight.

4. Do you read a little at a time or do you binge read?
I have no clue what binge read is, but when I start on reading, I don't stop. I spent a whole week-end reading Negima non-stop except for sleeping xD

:- Nope, I don't.

2. Do you read online or offline?

:- I read them mostly Offline, I don't like to read online. For my favorite, I purchased them in printed, since I'm a fan of collecting my favorites. If it's not available in print form, I purchased them digitally. And if the manga is not licensed, I download them in one app called "MangaRock"

Rarely, because I'm lazy to find suitable music. The only time I get audio is for my delicious BL doujins.

Online for doujins, offline for mostly everything unless it's a oneshot

Sometimes I listen to music. If my house is silent, then I won't listen to music while reading. I read both online on my phone and offline with physical manga checked out from my local library. I only read with the light off if I'm reading manga at night with my phone. I read a little at a time. Binge reading tires me out. I stay much more consistent going little by little.

1. Do you listen to music in the background?
Never, haven't tried also. I enjoy my quiet reading though.

2. Do you read online or offline?
Offline on a tablet, extremely confy stuffs you know. Unless it's a webcomic (Such as OPM by One and Senyuu)

3. Do you read with the lights off (supposedly to enhance your experience)?
The less light, the best I can see the screen without burning batery, so yups.

4. Do you read a little at a time or do you binge read?
Depend on the series. Sometimes I read 15ish chaps in a go and if it's pretty interesting I read 100s chaps or so.

1. I've listened to music while reading manga, it was usually whatever music I liked at the time. Led to some non-sequitur associations. But now I don't listen to much music, so I try to read without.

2. If we're talking scanlations, then yes, I read online. Honestly I would prefer to have an actual book in my hands, with real paper. However, there's only so much money I can spare. For me I want to support local bookstores, but this means paying double price for imported Viz volumes...It sucks...

3. I've never payed much attention to lighting. If I'm reading on paper, then I would want to read it under a bright lamp. The rest of the room can be dark, or not, I just want the volume to be lit well.

4. I binge read. If I'm in the mood I can read for very long. However, depending on my available time, or the content of the series, sometimes my momentum stops and I drag my feet through a series.
Right now I'm trying to read Gintama and Berserk at the same time, and the differences in series means different reading. Gintama is great but the episodic nature means I read it in bits. Berserk has a continuous story which means continuous reading.

1: Not music, but I do need some noise so I'll have a long YouTube video play while I'm reading a paperback, if I'm reading online then I can't because I read online through my IPhone.

2: Both, I own manga to read and use a app on my IPhone to read manga as well.

3: I need the lights on to be able to read, I don't have that issue if I'm reading through my IPhone though.

4: I usually read a bit when reading manga via my IPhone, and binge read when I get new manga.

1. Yes, I prefer calming music with instruments though. Lyric heavy music can be kind of distracting sometimes.
2. I do read some online but I definitely prefer having the physical book in my hands.
3. I like to sit on my couch with my back facing the window and having the sunlight hit the book, I don't read past the time of the sun setting. I can't stand reading books with lights, there is something about particular light bulbs that hurts my eyes when looking at paper.

2. Online, but I do want to buy all volumes of Love Hina and read them in volume form.

3. Depends on whether or not I can be bothered to get up and turn off the lights.

4. I binge up to it's latest release, then I'll follow it if I like it.

I usually listen to music when I read online, Unless I'm a reading a physical copy then no(maybe during lunch break in my car?). I like to read with the lights out when im online, the opposite for offline as it would be hard to read a book in the dark. And I like to binge read some random night during the week when I come across something good:)

1. Depends on the manga. If it's a long manga that I really enjoy, I always have music blasting in the background. It sets the mood.
2. I read on kissmanga. The option to read an entire chapter on one page is amazing. I can't read any other way now.
3. My lights are never on when I'm on the computer.
4. If I really enjoy the manga, I'll binge-read the hell outta it. If I'm meh about it, I'll read whenever I'm bored.
