add music question

[FairyGodMom7]

Is it possible to loop slides in a presentation and play a music file in the
background? I tried to insert the music file into to first slide and have it
play across slides, but when I come to the end of the slides (set to loop),
the presentation starts the music over again. I want the music file to run in
the background while the slides loop. Does that make sense? I have three
hours of music in a file, but the slides take less than four minutes to run.
I'm thinking the only way to do this is to run the music file on media player
and play the slide show in PPT, but I thought I would ask in case I am
missing something. Thanks.

Maybe playing the music with media player is the best method. I have
once encountered this kind of problem, and my friends said I could copy
and past my PowerPoint Slide for many times, then the whole file would
play as looping all the time. Stupid
