I DO have a fast broadband connection, and *I* also hate ANYTHING to be on autostart. I want to have the option of listening to WHICH song I want, if there are several- and I want to be able to set my PC's volume if necessary...and as already noted, if I happen to have other sounds playing, I don't want conflict.

I want to wander in, look around, and choose what & when to do there.

(To even expand on the concept, I strongly object to pages that have "target=blank" code which forces clinking on links to open in a new tab or window. There is an easy way to ASK your browser to open the link in a new tab/window, but it is VERY hard to stop it from doing so. [I do know how, but it requires a special program and special settings IN that program])

The simple answer is, as mentioned, to make stuff an option, with clearly visible & easily operated controls. It should take only one click to PLAY a song, but it may take several to restore peace between MY PC and YOUR website.
