    Not a mod or anything, but i can tell you that’s literally one of the worst things you can do to a site for these reasons if nothing else.

    Bandwidth
    Site speed (really one of the top things one trying to drive traffic)
    obtrusive to visitors, especially those in an office environment.
    and possible #1 its incredibly 90’s.

    Not trying to be rude at all, just trying to help.

    This is a good link that discusses this issue http://www.argondesign.com.au/web/why-adding-background-music-on-your-site-is-a-bad-idea/

    one of your major jobs in making your site it making it load as fast as possible.

    https://tools.pingdom.com/

    That site will give you an idea, anything over 3 seconds isn’t great, it’ll let you know specifically what is slowing it down.

    Then its all about SEO, but SEO really means nothing for a slow site, google will just ignore it. So no matter what you do you’ll never appear on front page listings.
