Survey of 1,000 15-24 year-olds by Marrakesh Records and Human Capital has revealed that two thirds of young people have claimed they would rather give up intercourse than their iPods.

Also, the survey disclosed that 60 per cent of 16-24 year olds would rather go without sex than music for a week, which increased to 70 per cent for 16-19 year olds, reports the Telegraph.
