I was referring to being able to sync up singing while playing. But ya, I get your point. Both are very beneficial though. I use to practice while watching TV all the time. Finger exercises mostly but if a commercial came on with music I'd try to jam along. It's a great way to play in styles you'd normally not be exposed to.
