Since I can't understand Japanese, I'd say I don't like it. However in my point of view its generally held in higher regard than C-Pop.

I can tolerate most, and actually get a kick out of some. But I wouldn't listen to j-pop outside of a videogame or a random youtube funny thing.

I have no definite opinion on it, really. Some of it is catchy, but it doesn't feature heavily in my library.

 I used to listen to J-Pop, but I don't anymore. Metal and Dubstep is what I listen to now. 
 
You better not consider Dir En Grey J-Pop....

  One of my favorites right now.  Ignore the actual video (just a bunch of drawings), but the song is great and it's the sort of beat and rhythm you just don't hear from western music

Yeah, I need to understand the lyrics to get a kick out of the music. Probably a bit habit since Japanese music can have some pretty neat stuff, and the singing is different (for that its in a foreign language).

j-pop > American pop
 
But I really do enjoy j-pop. Most anime I like tends to have some sort of j-pop in it. However, I do enjoy music in all languages.

I really like J-Pop, though I've never actively seek it out. If it happens to be in a game I was playing (Persona 4), or an anime I was watching, and I really like it, then I try to get the soundtrack.

"J-pop" isn't really my thing but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy some Japanese music.

I usually like music in foreign languages.  You don't understand the lyrics so you don't realize the song is stupid.

 I like it, as long as I'm not watching the music video that goes along with it.
 
The fact that I don't understand it is a plus.

J-Pop is okay, but I much prefer K-Pop. It's a lot catchier to me.

The most Jpop I've been exposed to is the Persona 3 and 4 soundtracks. 
I love those goddamn soundtracks.

It's J-Pop, meaning it's pop. 
Which is a genre that i tend to not like these days. Some of it's ok though.

Depends on the song / band. For me, asking that is the same as asking, "What do you think about western pop music?" It's not exactly a question I can answer with a general "I like it" or "I dislike it", it really comes down to specifics. Though that song that Ben_H linked is crap. Auto-tune is just plain bad.

Doesn't make it not true. But as for my opinion, J-Pop is alright, in proper doses. Not my thing, but I can tolerate it quite well.

I like it but I've always liked bubbly pop music in addition to all the other stuff I listen to.   It's a welcome release from the complexity of traditional jazz, the bleakness of alternative and the lyrical depth of artists like Dylan, Springsteen, Lennon and Young.  No thought required, just get your groove on and feel happy.  The fact that I can't understand 95% of the lyrics in J-Pop doesn't take anything away from what makes it enjoyable to me.  I like opera but I don't understand the languages sung in the best of those works, either.
