(Supposing that their prices are all the same) Would you spend your money to a great movie or a great song or a great book?

I would choose the song, movie would be my last choice.

Song > Book > Movie

Movie, book, song.

Book, song, movie. I never have the attention span for a movie, except in the actual cinema.

Book, Movie then Song. Thing is though You could get a good 10 to 20 songs for the price of a book (Assuming a song costs £1~ and a book costs £10 to £20) and 6 to 10 songs for the price of a movie (Same song price, £6 to £10 for a movie depending if it's in 3D). Also a book would last much longer than a movie (or at least most good ones should) and a movie longer than a song.

Ah, how silly of me, I forgot this kind of post will be made.

Suppose that all of their prices are the same. The price doesn't exactly matter, actually.

I'm not a very frequent buyer of new music or movies. Pandora is often good enough for music I don't have, and Hulu is my main source for movies and TV shows, so I don't really spend money on those two.
I did, however, just spend ~$350 on textbooks. Because "books" was tossed in with music and movies, however, I suspect that you had fiction in mind, whereas non-fiction dominates my reading material. So if you were talking about fiction, all three are basically the same at next to nothing. But if you're including non-fiction, I'm:
Books >> Movies > Music

If it's an album, I'd go with album > movie > book. But if it's only a song, I'd still have the movie first. :P

Assuming the prices are the same for all 3, I'd go with a book. Even though I don't often reread a book after I finish it, there is some intangible value in owning books.

If they're the same price that reinforces the book even more on the value for money side of things (A book will last much longer than a movie or a song, unless it inexplicably bursts in to flames of course but that doesn't happen often)

Book, of course.

Book gives me more hours of enjoyment.

I'd go with song.

I don't have time for books or movies.
