For a more modern example of a bad choice of hold music, let’s take an example I have to endure on a regular basis, Month of Sundays by Passenger. At CD quality it’s got lots of interesting stuff going on, which you’d imagine might be ideal to distract someone from the fact they’re being kept on hold for ages. However, playing it over the phone it’s simply too busy. As soon as the brass and backing vocals kick in it just sounds yuck.

The music in our on hold music section is pre-licensed, which means we can mix it with your on-hold messages without charging an additional music license. Also, this smaller selection of music is not in a PRO such as ASCAP, BMI, PRS etc. so you won't have to pay these agencies a fee for playing music on hold. You can use music from our library if you wish but there will be an additional license cost and not all of it is PRO free.
- Supported audio formats include: .WAV, .MP3 and .OGG; file size should not exceed 16 MB.
Great product range and great service - Just bought a Jabra Evolve2 65 headset for homeworking. I would recommend this company every time.

It doesn't matter how great your customer experience in store or with an employee is, if you neglect the on hold experience, you're neglecting the customer. Not sold? Check out Number 5, below:
A well written script is the cornerstone of any great on hold message. It must capture the caller’s attention, so they remain engaged while navigating menu options or waiting on hold. The script that callers hear can set the tone for the rest of the conversation. It should also be in line with your goals, which can be broken down to 3 main objectives. It can be to inform the caller, promote the brand or product, or just entertain the caller. Most of all, it has to be engaging.
In short, no. Music played to callers on hold must be licensed for this type of use. By playing unlicensed music, legal action can be taken against your business. The music in Holdcom’s vast library is fully licensed for Message on Hold usage.
