See I'm the total opposite. I've no interest in seeing the background, other then it being vaguely visible to set the scene or give a bit of context to some shots. I almost always underexpose or blur out the background and have the shot focused on the subject. You're right about it being personal preference, and I know some people prefer more ambient in their shots. That just never really appealed to me.
