Individual or group consumption?

I like individual consumption because you have privacy and full control of what is going on. When you are listening to music on your own and blocking everyone else out. Giving you time to yourself, but I prefer group consumption because when I’m at home alone I get bored. For example when I’m at home playing FIFA and I’m playing against the computer in a match I get bored because the computer is not challenging enough and I feel like I’m playing a ghost. But when on Fifa there is an online mode where you can play against other people online making things more interesting for you. Gaming consoles are made for multiplayer use and single but I prefer multiplayer.

There are many disadvantages and advantages of Group consumptions:

Some advantages of Group consumptions is that you are not alone because there is social media sites for example Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Group consumption helps people engage with other helping people who seek partners online. Which is social interaction. Another one again is sense of competition when you are playing a game console like, The Xbox One, PlayStation 3 or 4 and Wii. And sharing your experience you can do this via Internet or through taking pictures on your smartphone and show people you know.

Reasons Against group consumption are lack of control and lack of privacy so you have to share control over what is going on for example if you and somebody else is listening to music and you like a song but the other does not you will have to settle for a different one but it is no the one you wanted which is a problem.
