Personally, if I open a web page (or other HTML document) and it 
automatically starts playing music or other sounds, my immediate 
reaction is to close that page. It's just an annoyance, particularly in 
an office etc. where it also disturbs everyone else. I might mute the 
sound on my PC and then reopen the page, but more often I just don't 
bother. If you want people to actually read your business plan, it may 
be better NOT to play music in the background as soon as they open it!

I'm not sure about that, although from Luuk's response it looks like at 
least MP3 should work. It will also depend on the formats supported by 
web browsers, although MP3 should be fine there. And if you're emailing 
this document, rather than hosting it on a web server, you'll also need 
to email the sound file separately, and instruct your readers/listeners 
to extract both files to an appropriate folder for the sound to work.
