...All in favor say, I. Seem more productive today with a bit of electronic beat.

Microsoft Marketing...I'm thinking holo-music-video when you are ready to go to consumers? (Sans the scary-looking robot baby?) Assume having VR is an early adopter tell that you can sell AR to the same consumer until they merge in the not-too distant future. (U2 and Muse have interesting VR releases so far...think one video format that is easily adaptable to VR.)
Should be interesting when I see soon the reaction to the aesthetics/fashion/style/coolness element from the non-nerds, versus Google Glass, albeit I don't plan to be walking around town with my HoloLens. (e.g. just showing people at our house parties etc.)
But I think as fashion, making future HoloLenses customizable aesthetically like any pair of glasses will help with consumer reach.. Interesting to see the demographics of the follow-on adopters once it's not $3K and limited to devs.

Here's what I'm listening to, if you want to check out some new music: https://open.spotify.com/user/willnajar/playlist/4XYDvHFjc52W24SBJwXnR1
I don't think you can generalize a big group of people with only one genre of music. One thing that I hope HoloLens does in the future is appeal to a broad range of people. That means nerds, your parents, non-technical people, kids, artists, athletes, anything. I've demoed to a lot of people with all sorts of perspectives and backgrounds. Enjoyment of the device was surprisingly more universal than I would have guessed. I think we can help adoption by being inclusive and celebrating all kinds of apps/interests/arts styles/music/whatever. I'm worried that if marketing materials are too techy or too x then it will limit who thinks they will enjoy HoloLens.
