thunderlizard, I must question your logic in such an assumption. It appears to be no more than a somewhat primitive and simply organised fascimile of launch.com.
I would recommend that you investigate this alternative option at the first opportunity.
The video recordings I have analysed are indeed fascinating.

"People are OK if I use headphones"
Should be two choices:
"People are OK if I use headphones"
"People are OK if I use headphones, BUT ON CONDITION I DON'T SING ALONG."

Option 7) Music is far too distracting to my job...I tend to lose focus on what I am doing and start listening to the music. Aha ! A diminished 7th chord which you don't hear that often...or....wtf...a dance track at 129bpm instead of 128bpm.
It's the same if I am in a music shop looking at sheet music..eg, on the Debbie Gibson song "Who Loves Ya Baby" (Electric Youth Album 1989) there is a c0ckup in the first ending of the first repeated section. There are 5 beats to the bar on the sheet, but in fact there should be a notation to indicate that the final 3 beats only take up 2 instead.
Of course, once you play it you soon realise, lol !
Now, if I could only silence the rest of the distractions in the office, that would be fantastic. My dream is working in a room with absolutely no noise whatsoever. Bliss !

choose a song you like, then they find similar songs in their database. The system should get smarter as you tell it more of what you do or don't like. Looks like a nice idea and saves bringing an ipod to work.
So how many people can play music at work?
