Sight reading or playing by ear?

Keys asked:


Okay, I just restarted playing the piano/keyboard and this time, I want to mainly play Pop/Rock. I’m almost always restricted to reading sheet music because I played Classical when I was little. I was just wondering what would be the best route for me since I’m going to focus on Pop/Rock now, sight reading or play by ear? Also, any other tips for playing Pop/Rock on the piano/keyboard would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
