The site uses bgsound to play the music, that is Internet Explorer only coding that does not work in Firefox or many other browsers.

See this link for an alternative - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Background_music_does_not_play

In surveys, sites that automatically play background music rank quite high in things that annoy people, I would avoid adding background music.
