Musical Judgment

Judging people based on the type of music others listen is something that most people do without realizing it. Musical Judgments is a piece that brings the listener's awareness on this subject.
In the technical side of the piece I can say that an intro to the problem or subject would have been helpful; maybe the intro could have had some music or something that would make it visual to keep the listener's attention. Another thing that could improve the piece is editing the background noisy because it doesn't rally add to the piece and it is just distracting. An outro would have also been nice, maybe even having a recommendation of the producer's opinion on the subject.
