I don't know, but I shop at Tesco SOLELY because they don't play music.
I drive past three music-infested competitors on the way simply so that
I can shop in comparative silence.

Our local tesco has music from little TVs dotted all throughout the
store. When they first installed them they left the controls exposed
and the shoppers turned them down. Now they have littlel covers over
the controls. This tesco (newmarket Road, Cambridge) is used as a
"test bed" so you might expect otehr stores to follow this trend.

I hate it and try to shop elsewhere.
