It kinda depends on the tone with which that's said :P If it's a bored kind of not really looking for an answer I say mostly rock, but a bit of everything, mainly because they're unlikely to differentiate the general genres from the subgenres I don't listen to :P
If it's a little more "oh I like music, I'm actually interested in what you have to say", I usually say that I'm happy to listen to anything once, and that there are few genres I don't like anything from. Most of the music I like falls within the general bounds of "Rock" though.
I've found that if it's a throwaway remark there's no point in trying to go into detail, cause it just gets a blank. In the majority of situations though I've ended up having reasonably good conversations, mainly because I'm good at directing people onto subjects they want to talk about :P
