| Music on Hold I kinda like the music, it's Peter Gabriel and friends, in your eyes...
It's a hell of alot better than the old asterisk standby of "fp calm river" and what not. 
I would be cool to know my position in the queue tho... is this still possible?
Thanks,
Zacron

 | I've been enjoying the hold music as well, but when I ask for the name of the track, the tech support people have no idea.
Anyhow, the chip-tune sounding song is great - SM me if you know the artist/title! |

 | reply to zacron Remember when the quality/volume/etc. of the on-hold music was the only concern people had with Tek?

Salad days! It boggled the brains to even think it is/was a concern. If I had the time to concern myself with hold music Id be a happy dude. -- OptionsDSL Wireless Internet »www.optionsdsl.ca |

They go a long way.

 | It would be interesting if you'd throw in some lesser known artists. Maybe Jonathan Coulton's version of Baby Got Back, or The Future Soon, or Shop Vac, or Ikea...
Granted, it's not the most important thing in the world, but I figure it'd be worth mentioning. |
