This covers HTML5 and embedding two audio formats: http://www.tudor-anghelina.com/2013/10/using-html5-audio-tag-to-add-background.html Little details I remember from other places / threads: - Mobile is picky about autostarting audio; I think it's a privacy/security issue for some reason. In contrast, I'm able to generate tones without first getting permission (so if your music is MIDI-like, you might be able to play that automatically) -- otherwise just a heads up. - People often host audio at dropbox (I also use github for static content). SoloLearn Q&A has several examples of this, just search for "audio". - iframes have additional security concerns. It's in the same area as cross-origin scripting; basically the server getting its content embedded in the iframe needs to give permission for outside control. If you have something you could put in CodePlayground, it will help with more specific answers (especially as another wave of people comes online later)

I'm using the YouTube API here: https://code.sololearn.com/WY2xou48ucG4/?ref=app There are more examples when searching SL codes, like this one using an iframe... [HTML] line 154: https://code.sololearn.com/W5hf01oDu3o7/?ref=app
