I'm not talking a fanfare that precedes me or anything, but the fact that any shop or public space (apart from parks) I go into have to have music on. All. The. Bloody. Time.
Even the local charity shops now "have to have music" they tell me.
I don't want to listen to music. If I wanted to do that I'd stay home with my CD's or go to a gig. If I'm shopping I want to shop. I need to think about what I'm buying not have my ears blasted with some awful caterwauling.

I am wondering if I could start a campaign?

And don't get me started on Christmas music in shops.

Doesn't encourage me to spend either. It makes me leave as fast as possible.

I hate background music, especially overly loud. I have ME and fibromyalgia, and find constant noise as physically draining as trying to go for a run, and it quickly becomes physically painful too. Never much liked shopping, really hate it with added background / overpowering music!
