Musak was the original background music system which was played through wires to the paying customer who was typically the owner of an elevator. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/28274/muzak-history-background-story-background-music
Seeburg made background music on discs and they were played on a jukebox which had no coin collection.

Both companies had their own orchestras because recorded music was hard to obtain in those days. Both systems used mono music and the discs were 16 2/3 rev/min.
