Marks and Spencer turns off its in-store music after conducting extensive client feedback research about what it's customers want. A win/win situation for the store, as the bid will also save it money as well as winning back its core customer base aka "Mr and Mrs". Enjoy the silence...

Thank you for (stopping) the music.
“M&S remains the UK’s biggest chain store, a national institution. So this is a great day for all campaigners for freedom from piped music. Millions of customers will be delighted by this news. So will thousands, probably tens of thousands, of people working in M&S who have had to tolerate non-stop music not of their choice all day for years. Now we can shop in peace.”
