... hey, as long as you're okay with missing some truly imaginative works as well, such as that Prof Pangea Holmes work that was made entirely of "photographs" of correspondence and found documents between Sherlock and Mycroft.

[(Anonymous)]

To be fair, most fics aren't like this and this doesn't sound like the kind of thing the OP is complaining about.

[silverr]

Yeah, fair point.

It's just that sweeping statements like "I will NEVER look at anything with embedded media because it could be creatively deficient" kinda bugs me.

The Pangaea work aside, I've seen a number of delightful stories with embedded pictures (and liked them enough that I've pulled in fanart drawn for stories that I've written) because I feel it can add to a reader's enjoyment. I've also written a story that included graphics of short found documents to add a sprinkle of epistolary flavor, and in that case a text-only rendition of the story would be missing some subtle-but-key elements.

.. however, that's graphics, not music. The more I think about the OP's post the more I agree that insisting that readers listen to a particular piece of music while they read is possibily too much: it's like an intrusive soundtrack in a movie, the type that seems to whack you over the head at each Big Emotional Moment to make sure you got it (something that I personally find irritating).
