Pandora.com is a WONDERFUL website for this. You pick the artist or the type of music and it automatically picks related songs and that artists songs and plays non-stop, no commercials, no cost. I LOVE this website.

I love Pandora!
I have 4 different stations for my music on Pandora. I have it playing from my personal computer while I work on the work computer! It is great! Best thing I have ever found! 
Opening up Pandora's box of wine
Hey Patti, it's ok to talk about drinking and transcribing. People react strongly because it hits a raw nerve. It's a topic that is kept in the dark. I suspect many transcriptionists do and have drank at the desk. I myself have had a small glass of wine on occasion when I have been so stressed out, like when I have been given a 30-day notice that my work is going to India! Or my foreign-accented dictator yells at me for something stupid! I venture to say that perhaps more transcriptionists have a glass or two of liquor toward the end of their shift than they would care to admit. I just think you got such a response because it is a topic most transcriptionists have thought about in one way or another. I'm not saying it is ok or it is morally wrong. It does happen though.

I listen to it through my headphones in the background of my dictation.
The volume can be adjusted separately from your dictation and you can pause it if you need to.
I can't even begin to tell you all the choices they have for music. Classical, rock, punk, techno, new age, everything you could possibly imagine... Even Christmas music.
