I would have to agree. IF you want to have a sound on a page, it is always
much much MUCH better to have a button so users can choose to play it. I
personally HATE pages that I go to and have to wait while a sound loads.
Sounds on the web are much like animation--they are "neat" and "fun" but
should be used with extreme caution and discretion.
