I say that's the wrong way to do it. User should not be forced to listen to
the music but then have an option not to listen. User should hit 'play' to
listen. Opt-in, not opt-out.
Imagine someone putting a finger in your nose, but you may ask him to take
it out. Wouldn't it be nicer if by default there will be no fingers at all
in your nose, but if you really really want one, all you have to do is ask.
Sure I uderstand that you have a person there who is very eager to put his
finger in someones nose, but you also have to understand it from the users
point of view, not everyone wants a finger in their nose, so let's not
offend anyone.
