Hi Martin,
I know this is a little bit off topic but your post ties into some research I have been doing.
At present I have a couple of blogs at blogger but I am looking to go over to Wordpress. I know you can use plugins, but I am unable to find one that plays music while the visitor is on my blog.
So, my question is, do you know of any such plugin or of a manual way of doing it?
Thanks in advance.
All the best
Costa
