People's perceptions of plane etiquette seem to changing, and this story clearly serves as evidence of the friction between passengers. If you were seated next to someone who was playing loud music, you probably would be slightly annoyed but the truth is in this day and age, everyone is playing music throughout the flight. The air pressure also makes it pretty hard to hear the music of your neighbor, especially if you're also listening to something. I'm just saying: slightly loud music surely is not justification for waking up your seatmate in order to tell them to turn it down. Furthermore, as was the case with this story, if everyone else on the plane including the flight attendant is giving you looks, then it's not your seatmate who is the problem: it's you. Hi. You're the problem, it's you.
