you should be able to turn the volume down if you just want background. 
personally, i like to "listen" to music or not bother to have it there 
at all. you can also reprocess all your files to play softer using a 
variety of programs. i wrote one called midimod2 that allows you to 
create "presets" to modify loudness and then to apply this modification 
to all files in a folder. you could, for example make a background set 
of music as soft as you want. you can find the program at the download 
page of my web site.
http://spencerserolls.com/Files4Download.html you can contact me 
directly if you need any help with the program.
