Open Question: Why is classical music so hard to listen to?

You can't listen to it on the bus or in the metro due to the extremities of loud and soft which are always present in classical music. You end up just hearing the loud parts DA NA NA NA wtf just happened? You can't listen to it at night (if you live in an apartment/flat) without constantly adjusting the volume on your speakers due to the aforementioned LOUD/soft ever present aspects. When you're driving home from a night of mayhem with your friends and want to unwind you switch to classical fm only to hear whines that THIS MUSIC IS DEPRESSING PUT BACK THE ELECTRO You can't afford to buy it since each cd costs around 40 to 50 bucks (Of...course.. I don't have over 100 gb of classical music on my hard drive from torrents (shifty eyes)) And finally a little statistic with no relevance whatsoever to the topic in question...courtesy of Youtube.com Britney Spears - Womanizer (Director's Cut) Views: 30,213,127 Gustav Mahler - Adagietto (from Symphony N°5) 11,048 views THIS WAS A JOKE! I am obsessed with Chopin. He is my favorite composer. So I've already listened to all his etudes. I know Alkan's Barbaro, it is very catchy but I doubt it is as hard to play as people say it is after listening to Liszt's transcendental etudes or Godowsky's variations on Chopin etudes. Yes, I've listened to that Toccata by Prokofiev. I'll admit I haven't delved much into Prokofiev yet besides his 2nd and 3rd piano concerto and some of his other symphonic works And finally I want to add that I used the word classical in a colloquial sense as everyone seems to do on these forums. I spend most of my days in the romantic era. Derek I also listen to Jazz a lot. Oscar Peterson and Art Tatum are my favorite jazz pianists.
