Should you learn to READ MUSIC?

English is not my native language, so you are advised to accelerate to 1.25 speed :)

I tried to answer this question in a very general manner, but obviously
you should decide for yourself on a case-to-case basis.

00:00 guitar and bass players
00:28 reading music is not music theory!
1:06 knowing the fretboard
1:25 rhythm
1:56 feeling inferior

who i think should learn to read
2:40 classical/jazz musicians
3:12 composers, producers and other professionals
3:15 session/live players

who doesn't have to
3:38 beginners, hobbyists
4:10 contemporary musicians
4:24 those who only play music they write
4:43 when you do something - you give up on something else
5:11 learning because you just want to
