First if all, fuck webpages that play sound unexpectedly. Secondly, what percentage of elevators even play music these days?


Secondly, what percentage of elevators even play music these days?

Pretty much every elevator I've been in for the last ten years. I note it mentally because spirit of the music is always at odds with the messages on the display screens.

I think the only elevators where I haven't heard music recently are in residential buildings.


Maybe it's regional, as I've never heard music in an elevator before.


Same. Weird. I never imagined something so seemingly consistent as elevators having regional dialects.


Where do you live / what type of buildings are these?


huh... no shit. I think I've encountered maybe 2 or 3 elevators that play music in my life, and I'm a middle-aged guy living and working in a major metropolitan area where most non-residential, and many residential buildings have elevators.
