Ah thanks, didn't see the commercial option at the bottom of the page in fine print.

Like anything else, it depends on the licensing. We purchased some royalty free music on CD from Manion Music (http://www.manionmusic.com/), ripped the CDs, and put the MP3s on an ipod shuffle (1st Gen). The ipod is plugged into a wall charger and is set on random, and it has been playing for years with little to no issue. It serves as BOTH MOH and BGM. As for Satellite, we're doing that too. They offer a commercial subscription that allows you to legally do exactly what you described. We've installed both XM and Sirius. (Different facilities, different preferences on content - like everything else, it is political). As for not getting caught, I acknowledge that the risk is low, but I wouldn't take the chance. We had an entity in the next town over from us get busted by either ASCP or EMI, I forget which, and it cost them well in excess of 6 figures. Yes, six figures. I'll try to find the aticle.

Well, I don't think that is *technically* legal, but you can probably get away with it. You could just rip some CDs to MP3 files and put something like WinAmp on there to play the MP3 files in a random or specified order. That's not legal either, but unlikely to get caught either. :-) -----Original Message----- From: N Parr [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2010 11:28 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Sat Radio for your PBX on hold? Stupid question, been wanting to do this for years and Management finally told me to do it. Anyway, say I sign up for the Sirius internet streaming and just plunk an old laptop on the top of the PBX rack. Does the internet stream ever time out or will it stay on indefinitely? Would be kind of hard to put a physical unit in, would have to get an antenna outside. Noticed they also have a tabletop radio that uses internet connection for it's feed. Suppose that would work also if the feed never times out.
