Jukeboxes

A jukebox is a partially automated machine which plays music. Often, it is coin-operated meaning that it will only play music selected by a user who has fed a coin to it. The music that a jukebox can play will differ from juke box to juke box. There will be media inside the jukebox itself which will contain the songs it can play and the user can view a list of these songs and make a choice from here.

Juke Box Hire

Juke boxes are machines which play music which can be selected from a list by the user. Often jukeboxes are operated by coin meaning that you can only play a tune if you have fed the machine a particular coin in advance. Tunes can be ‘queued’ so you can feed more than one coin at a time.

When you hire a juke-box, it is most likely that the coin operated machanism will be turned off so that the users can pick tunes without having to pay any money into the jukebox.
