Okay, I love the elevator music idea as a gag in media.

But I've never been in an elevator that has ever played music, and I can completely understand why. Elevator music sounds obnoxious.

It tends to be in upscale hotels, generally around the holidays, but isn't incredibly common anymore.

If I think back on it, I'm not sure I have heard it since the 90s.
