Would annoy me if I'd have to hear it everyday tbh.

When travelling in Tokyo, I found Tokyo Metro's lack of melody to be refreshing. Just hearing that departure tone. Same thing with the Shinkansen. I guess this will be a twist on it.
On the other hand, there are some I'd be willing to listen to every day such as the as outlined in the article Astro Boy one and this one on the Senseki (since they let the whole thing play)

It's the more "random composition" ones I don't really enjoy
E.g. Yoyogi and Gotanda

Sometimes I wonder what effect these tunes have on the suicidal. I imagine the intent is to prevent some from doing so, but I also wonder if the music instead provokes them at times.

Perhaps some would prefer John Williams and Kevin Peek riff out some Pachelbel...

Sorry for the guro picture.

I think I once saw a video of a streetrunning train in Japan that was blaring "Kimi Ga Yo" to mark its presence. Do Japanese trains really do that?

"Quicker than a ray of light."

Meh... Trust me to bugger up names. It was Praetorius, not Pachelbel, that wrote the Terpsichore.
