Sound is Torture

I swear on a stack of bibles that in all my 10 years of web designing I have never … ever … embedded sound in a website and after completing the client’s website I am currently working on I will never … ever … embed sound ever again.

The reason why I will never use sound again is because I’ve just been psychologically damaged for the rest of my life. I wanted to brush up on the EMBED command and so I went to a site that Google recommended and there was subjected to the most hideous aural torture you could possibly imagine.

I was stuck listening to the most soul-destroying rendition of the 1812 Overture I have ever heard. It sounded as though the musicians were playing tin whistles and a garbage can lid and the cannon … was a cap gun.

I am now a shattered man. :(
