Hi Jacob, what's the actual goal? Do they want the music bar to follow the user around the Web, or just on their site? If your client wants it visible even after the user has left the site, keep in mind many users will not expect, nor enjoy it. Digg caught a lot of flack for the DiggBar.
If the player is just on the site, then it's pretty easy, though ou will run into SEO issues, as the main frame will be indexed, whereas the subframes may not be. You can ease that impact by ensuring that the frame links to the original content page, making it easy for search engines to find them. On a side note, it isn't always our job to make the client smile in the short term. Sometimes we need to educate them to avoid frowns in the long run, especially if you're speaking for the end-user.
