    There are different channels. The stores you’re going into are playing that music by choice, often to cater to specific demographics. You wouldn’t expect, say, a skateboard shop to play classical, just as you wouldn’t expect a greeting card store to play death metal. I remember when the hardware store I worked in switched from instrumental to music with lyrics.

        Ugh, I’ve always hated the lyric free versions of songs that played in the JC Penny (?) clothing section my mother used to drag me to.
