It is not a good idea to have music that auto-plays as soon as someone opens up your website. Suddenly, when the music starts playing, anyone in the office or a public place may suffer problems. Most people close the browser instead of closing the page as sites have no way of turning off the music<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This can be an obvious problem for mobile users as they account for 60% of the total visitors. Besides, it reduces page loading time<\/a> and consumes bandwidth.<\/p>\n

In general, most people hate sites that autoplay music that they don\u2019t want to listen to. A better alternative is using a video slideshow about products, seasonal offers, etc., that grabs visit a fancy.<\/p>\n
