Thanks for the comments.

The pop-up window with music controls is an interesting idea, though
it would be messier on the page with the extra warning about a new
window opening.

What the client wanted is to simulate what they have in their office;
soothing background music. Yes, this is a loop that they bought
somewhere, maybe 45 seconds long. I *could* probably edit it a bit to
take out the gap where it repeats, to make that less obvious. But if
you listen long enough I imagine most people will pick up on the
repeating pattern no matter what.

Robert, I am surprised that the normal and quiet volume difference is
not significant on your system. I tried it on a few different
computers, and it seemed about right. And I did puzzle for a while
over the question of what is "normal" volume (though even my "normal"
is supposed to be at a background level). But what does one use as a
baseline? I ended up calibrating it using Yahoo video news clips as
the average level.

Anyway, as a follow-up, as I do some googling, maybe someone out
there named Miles knows, can a swf in one frame talk to a swf in
another frame, and tell it what to do?
