Hearing is something that happens when the sound hits your eardrum and its converted to signals which the auditory nerves send to the brain and the brain interprets them as sounds.

This distinction between "listening" and "exposure" is most practically one between "listening" and "hearing." And the consequences for this difference are profound."Listening" is active. "Hearing" is passive. "Listening," therefore, is an act of will. "Hearing" can simply happen without desire or intention or interest or preference. "Listening" is emotional. "Hearing" is passionless. "Listening" means getting deep in the experience. "Hearing" means never getting beyond the glossy exterior. "Listening" means listeners will seek out programming. "Hearing" means the programming has to seek out the listener. "Listening" means you tune in specifically for something. "Hearing" means you're listening in part to avoid hearing something - namely anything other than what constitutes a passive listening experience (e.g., commercials, clutter, chit-chat, etc.) "Listening" means marketing can be brand-building and strategic. "Hearing" means marketing is mostly tactical, moving listeners from station to station for a time the way coupons move shoppers at the market. For "hearers" just doing marketing is more important than what the marketing demands of you. It's the impact that matters more than the message. "Listening" means I know and care about you. "Hearing" means I only care about me and I don't even want to know you. "Listening" means I'm tuned in for my favorite songs or personalities. "Hearing" means the devil is not at all in the details but in the simplicity of the brand overall and the degree to which it fulfills its basic expectation. "Listening" means your station will develop fans. "Hearing" means you will attract aisle-browsers.Listening is actively paying attention.Hearing is passive and involuntary for anyone that CAN hear.
Humans hear many sounds during their daily life and unconsciously do not remember some of them. Also a person can hear what another person is saying, but may feel either bored with the conversation or are too into themselves to care what the person is saying so they hear, but not listen and do not absorb any of the information.
Hearing is the passive act of perceiving sound, while listening involves actively focusing on and interpreting what is being said. For example, hearing a car horn honking while walking down the street is a passive act, whereas actively listening to a friend sharing their feelings involves focused attention and understanding of their words.
