Is it possible for someone to dislike music? To dislike all music that is. I know its a hard question to answer since the definition of music is not precise, but has anyone ever met someone who honestly does not like any kind of music? AND, is music overrated?

It's more of how often you listen to what kind of music. If you could log in how much you listen per day, and to what genre, then you could compare it to others who listen to constant pop or rap. You could then get an honest answer to "what kind of music do you listen to?"
I don't listen to music regularly, and I don't listen to the same thing over and over, so I'd fall in the "barely listens to music" category, maybe less than a percent of how much others listen to music.
I dont think music is overratted - I think it's misappreciated. Pop groups have made it too easy to care for how a band looks rather than how they sound. THAT's what's overratted.

I find this a very interesting topic, since it's uncertain even why humans developed a sense of music in the first place, and whether it is or why it isn't just a waste of time.
I've been trying to find something on the subject. The most relevant I found was this acticle which says that deaf people use the same part of the brain to process tactile vibrations as hearing people do for sound. While that says little about the purpose of music, it might hint towards what music is beyond its medium. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2001/11/011128035455.htm

Early math philosophers placed music as an important part of the curriculum because it represents math going through time.
