[Asterisk-Users] RE: Rewind MusicOnHold?

[Brent Torrenga]

Create a class of hold music for each channel? Then do a
Dial(SIP/blah,,m(Channel1))? Or something like that...

Also, I do not know if this behavior seems to vary from system to system,
but on mine it seems like each channel does get it's own music, that it is
not broadcast across al channels... Ymmv
