I am playing continues background music in my app in Windows Phone. From the microsoft certification point of view the parallel sound must not be opened if there is already music being played.

What should I do?

Should I:

  1. Detect any background music like song and prompt to user to stop my app background OR
  2. Detect any background music and prompt to user to stop already played music in the background like any song? OR
  3. Can I can play both backgrounds at the same time with the user's permission?

It sounds like options 1 and 2 are just a single choice you can present to the user: "My audio or your existing audio".

However the very fact you start playing audio will very likely stop any background audio. So you must go with option 2.

Who would honestly pick the 3rd option?
