How about just streaming with spotify/youtube on a very, very low volume? I can sort of hear that there is something if I'm not listening to anything else, but once I have something else to actually watch, I barely notice the stream.
Edit : Or what Q3 said.
(The problem with doing this with youtube is that if the thing you actually want to watch is also on youtube, you end up having to keep adjusting that volume control. I usually just pause streaming youtube in this case.)

Seems Independence Day Resurgence is a new film due out next year by Roland Emmerich of 2012 fame. Wonder if Adam was invited because he's an acquaintance or perhaps because he'll be featured on the movie soundtrack....just thinking out loud...LOL I like that thinking...very much

I'm confused.. Aren't those 2 bolded statments contradicting each other? I thought turning the volume to 0 was the same as muting..? Can you please clarify? Turning down the volume on your device is separate from turning it down on the app. Lots of people have talked about running Spotify, Rdio, etc., muted on separate tabs simultaneously. . No one can detect the volume level of your device -- so that is safe. The question floating around is if you can run Spotify and Rdio with the volume turned down to 0 on the app and if it will count as a Billboard audio stream. Spotify and Rdio can detect what volume level you have set it at when you do it within the app, so the safe solution it to set it at right above 0. You won't be able to here it but it will be a legit audio stream

I can't get the Spotify sound low enough to not bother me (must have sensitive ears) Have it as low as it goes without being muted and I still hear it.
Guess I won't be streaming.

Geez, I wish they would ban the sale of fireworks in my state. It is hot and dry and there are idiots out there shooting stuff off all over the neighborhood. Have watered everything down all day, including the roof. Amazing the junk I find in my yard, on the patio and roof every year after the 4th. Cat got outside and she is hunkered down under the laurel hedge and won't come out so hope she is on the doorstep in the morning - Adam related, I hope they have a nice party without the fireworks.

I am in NE Ohio where we have extra water so no fire hazard and I love fireworks but the fireworks have been going off for 5-1/2 hours here. I think it is long enough, even for me. **** New thread is up.

yeah, that what I was saying. All my streaming "work" apparently was a waste of time and effort....and like you I listen to other stuff at the same time and I'm not willing to mute my device. Ditto! I suggest don't give up. My common sense brain says how the hell could they possibly tell what volume you are listening at. Turn the volume down to the lowest level without muting on your app and stream away. Nothing lost by trying
