Bad things about music on web pages:
1. You have no control over what will play.
2. It downloads extra data (sometimes a significant amount), slowing down page load.
3. The browser plugin then has to be loaded ,slowing down page load even more.
4. It can be difficult to find the play/pause button and thus waste time trying to stop it.

Good thing about music on web pages:
1. It makes you feel like it's 1995 again?

Music on web pages that are not specifically designed to play music is jarring to the user, and almost all the time extremely annoying. It's even worse when the page doesn't provide a way to stop the music. I go to a web page for information. I do not go there to hunt around for 10-30 seconds to turn off the tacky music the web master thought was a good idea to put into their HTML.

Although it doesn't really matter anyway... There is so much more to be done to this site before anything like this is even considered!
