We have music playing at work, but it's at such a low volume, I can barely hear it at my desk. So I'd really only have to deal with whatever music would be on TV or in movies. They have 9 studio albums, so that's enough songs for a decent variety without much repeating. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. <cite>bigblu89 posted [p:968194463] in $5,000,000...
