Music on Websites
Posted in Personal on July 14th, 2008Don’t put music on your websites. If you have a player that is fine. If I want to listen to your music then I would. I don’t. So don’t do it.
Why is this annoying and will get your site closed out faster than it loaded? I’m playing my own music. I wanted to listen to what I was listening to, not what you want me to hear when I land on your page. If the web was meant for people to hear what others wanted them to, it would be a damn radio, not the internet.
Another reason to not do it, is that it makes your pages load slower. Download the song that you are going to make me listen to, and then I have pirated music on my PC. I am sure that you do not have a license to distribute that boy band shit. So don’t do it.
Last, but not least. If you are going to have music on your site. Put a damn stop button on it at the top. Make it clear. So when I load 10 tabs at a time I don’t have to close them all out just so I don’t have to listen to your teen-bop music that sucks.
That is all.
