Audio commentary is Ineligible but what about the jukebox section?

"Guided listening stations allow visitors to listen closely to key artists and genres—from salsa and Santana to San Antonio rhythm and blues. Expert commentary identifies elements such as ethnic roots, rhythmic patterns, form, texture, instruments, vocal style, and lyrics.

The exhibition comes with a fully operational juke box so that visitors can dance to their favorite rhythms."
