The owner of a convenience store in Austin, Texas says the goal is to deter homeless individuals from being there and harassing customers. Some customers say they're all for the music, while others are annoyed by it.

Patel says he started playing the music about 10 days ago and got the idea because other store owners have it.

"Now since they've had this music going on, we have less traffic down with the homeless out here," Miranda said."It's helping out, it's not annoying to us because it doesn't bother us, but it bothers probably them because they're doing drugs," he said."I believe, just talk to them, and ask them not to hang around, or not to live around, whatever, I think that's the best solution," Frederick Carter, who lives nearby, said.
