Take it from one who has in the past committed this sin and been greatly
chastised for it: think long and hard about embedding sound files in your
web pages. Complaints I received included:
*Takes too long to load.
*Interferes with the CD's that some readers are already listening too in
their CD-ROM drives.
*Tends to crash some people's browsers.
*Can disturb co-workers if viewed at the office.
*Downright annoying.
