Music is pretty distracting to some people. Car stereos should definitely be banned too.
To be fair, both having a conversation and listening to music keep me alert when driving. Yes, it might also produce cognitive overload, but in my case it's definitely better than cognitive underload (boredom).
You know what's by far the most distracting thing to me while driving? Constantly checking my speedometer. In some areas I do it constantly, out of fear of getting a speeding ticket. I don't even want to speed!
When I was a kid and my dad was driving and had to make a left turn or perform some other maneuver that required his full attention, he'd ask everyone in the car to be quiet. This was a man that raced automobiles as a hobby and worked in professional racing at the highest levels his entire life.

Don't forget to reroute some of your winnings:
I've tried GIMP, but the maddening UI you mentioned just isn't worth the frustration to me..
Lets the timeline right
1. North Korea makes its disapproval of The Interview public and complains to the UN in the summer of this year
2. Sony is hacked and passwords are leaked. The passwords are the focus of the story
3. A couple of days go by, no mention of North Korea or The Interview
3.5 I've gotta be missing something here
4. Theaters (not Sony directly) decide the pull The Interview because of threats from NK
5. FBI blames NK for sony hack
6. Obama gets involved (?????)
The sequence of events just makes no sense. Then there are sites like reddit that are completely consumed by the story. The number of posts about it is insane, and there is little skepticism about the bizarre sequence of events or the blaming of NK.
