I hate the idea of using a radio for MOH, the only reason is commericals and the fact it's commericals you can't control. At one of my previous jobs, I setup one of the servers which was near the PBX with Winamp (you could use any music program) and loaded some music via MP3's into a list. I then threw in a couple of advertisments for our company such as "Please ask our reps if you might be interested in our new and exciting products... blah... blah" This was nice because we could change it on the fly anytime we wanted and had total control over it.

To me this just made more sense than just tossing a radio onto a system for MOH, but just my thoughts.
