I agree with you. The music phone service provider use is never the best! Like you, when I switch to my calendar on iPhone and ask my caller to wait while I do that, it would be great to have one of my iPod tracks play to him until I pressed the green bar again to return to the call. Surely one could set that up independently of the phone service provider: just a matter of substituting my music choice for my voice until I clicked back off hold??

*This does not include phones purchased off the shelf at office supply stores such as Staples and Officemax. For the most part, these phones do not have the Message on Hold capability built-in. Add-ons are available for some models but their functionality can be problematic or inconvenient for the user. The best course of action is to upgrade to either a basic key phone system or one of the new virtual phone systems, for which Holdcom is a key audio production supplier. Contact Us for more information.
That said, despite having the tools to get it done, you may still be wondering how to actually sit down and create on hold messages. At its essence, your script is the business’s framework and what sets the stage for how callers interact with you. The only other 2 alternatives are your front door (if you have one) and your website.

The most common codecs are G729 (compressed) and G711 (non-compressed). They are designed to compress human speech, and often cause a loss of audio fidelity — which is worse in some languages than others. On hold music that has been specifically designed for that purpose, to be used with VoIP systems and codecs, can sound great. But it is not easy to come by.
